Ironing Board Storage Pegboard

Shabby Paints
by Shabby Paints
Well I've been trying to do this project for 2 months. Finally got a little time and space to get her done! This Ironing board was half off $3.99 at Goodwill, with broken legs. Who needs an ironing board anyway? Not me lol. I painted her with Shabby paint. Carefully Remove the legs. Paint then add some cute vinyl letters, stencil, or free hand. (I'm not that talented)
UPDATE: Somebody mentioned limited space and I got to thinking that this would work vertical with vertical lettering. Then limited space led me to think of a peg board and the S hooks fit! How awesome to have a space for stuff on an ironing board in your laundry. I can't wait to see one hanging like that on the back of a laundry door.
Old metal Ironing board..I don't iron :)
Painted and lettered.
Peg board hooks fit with a slight adjustment.
Workshop or Laundry storage. Oh and don't forget magnets will work too :) ShabbyPaints.com

    I love this idea! What hooks did you use? Regular pegboard hooks won't work.

    How do you remove the legs? They appear welded on to the top.

    Great idea. Have an ironing board but no iron. LOL

    Iron decided to quit, never bought a new one. Hope the legs aren't too hard to get off.

    I just happen to have an "extra" ironing board, how that happened, I'll never know..but.this is a fabulous idea for a very small laundry area in a small single wide mobile home...I have used it both sideways + upright. Extra socks have been reunited using the hooks! Messages have been left using the magnets! A great and useful idea! Thank You!
