Walmart has the trays for about $8. I've seen these before and am going to make one for myself if I ever get my sewing room all pulled together. :roll: It seems like it's taking forever!

Make sure if you do this that the "TV tray" is made of real wood, not a laminate or MDF as those can not take the heat, or steam. I love mine.

Cute Cute! I bought 3 (different sizes) small portable ironing boards at the Goodwill that fit on a table top. I figure someone else may need one and I definitely take it with me when I go to our quilt retreat and once-a-month Saturday quilting time. I have been trying to think of what to put the tiny ironing boards on so that they won't be too high for me. A TV tray may be the perfect solution! Thank you!

What a coincidence! I just saw the table in a quilt shop this weekend. RV quilters were lovin' it!

Wow, what a great idea. I've heard about making ironing surfaces, but never even though about using a TV tray. Perfect size to fit right beside me. I'n on it!!!.......
