I know some of you have made your own ironing board using batting and maybe a thick cotton, or that silver fabric that would normally cover an ironing board. I had an idea, and in my head it's amazing, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will turn out that way. I am in need of more storage space in my sewing room. I was thinking of buying an old dresser off craigslist (maybe 5' long, 18"-22" wide, and about 33" tall) and turning the top of it into an ironing surface, the same as you would make an ironing board. I'm not too concerned with it looking amazing, more looking for it to be functional. Is there anything about this that strikes you as a bad idea? Once I get a plan in my head I have a hard time finding the flaws in it, even thought hey may be obvious to someone else. Thanks.
