How to make a table top ironing board?

Welcome Danielle, she is sharing how to make a custom DIY ironing board. Table top ironing board is a great substitute to iron without ironing board. It is portable and can be placed on top of any flat surface for ironing like wooden or tile floor or table. A carpeted area or bed can also work. You can place it on kitchen or bathroom counter as well. The best material to make ironing board is 100% unbleached cotton or teflon ironing board covers.

My name is Danielle and I am the creator of the Minimoz blog. I am really excited to be here today. Thanks Hani! The real minimoz’s behind my crafting is Zac 4 and Ella 2. I love the inspiration I get from them.

Today I am showing you how to make handmade,

 Portable Table Top Ironing Board.

I have a small laundry and keep my ironing board away in the cupboard. I love to sew but hate that I have to get the ironing board out for a small project. This new ironing board is perfect!

 Plywood

Foam (mine was approx an inch)

Nail gun or stapler

Fabric

First cut the plywood and foam to the size you need.

Place the fabric wrong side facing up and lay the foam down.

Make sure you have plenty of fabric to wrap around. And place the plywood down too.

 Fold the fabric over twice, it gives it more stability. Begin to staple, be careful if you are using a power tool!

Make a hospital bed fold on the corners and pull it tight.

 I also added some felt padding on the corners.

 All done  It should look like this.
