    Or adding feet to the bottom? I found some cute bun feet at the home improvement store...
    I must be shorter than you. This cabinet was the exact height I had my ironing board set at.

    Fabulous! I'm also on the hunt for something to put my big ironing board on top of once I move...I'm thinking either a taller cabinet like that or some garage shelves... It isn't going to go on top of the ironing board anymore.

    Don't you love it?! I had my BF do a similar thing with a dresser that I'd used for my girls when they were babies. It had a changing table type thing on top. Now the dressers are too small to be of much use for their much larger clothing but they work great for FQ's and miscellaneous inter-facing, etc.

    Yours is beautiful as well as functional!

    What a wonderful idea! I have an unused china cabinet. Guess what I will have my husband work on? Thanks for sharing, Linda
