I have a rather small apartment/ I have a lot of things in my appartment.
I sew in my bedroom and iron in the kitchen but I don´t like the ironing board to stand in the kitchen all the time, now it doubles as a side board
I have this idea of a kind of cupboard where the board is attached to the door and I can keep ironingsupplies in the cupboard and very easy plug in my ironing station when I want to use it.
Has anybody seen a smart solution to this. I´m aware of that I might have to use my drill to fix it.

Yes, but I have to have deeper shelves. I was hoping to be able to use a cupboard, new or antique and add the ironingboard to it. Now I got some ideas on how to add the board and are going to take a look at IKEA to see what they have.
Thank you!
