Repurposed Ironing Board for Your Craft Room

If you have an old ironing board and are looking for storage for your craft room, that’s the idea that you needed! That’s not the first time we show you repurposed ironing boards (here

, here, here, and here), but now you found a unique place for your spools of thread.

    • As far as can see, you can buy one of those thread holders that they sell at Walmart or Joanns. Then wire it to the ironing board or predrill some holes and put screws with a nut and attach it that way. You may have to make some adjustments to the thread holders if they are to wide. That's the easiest way I see to do this.

    • Use molding drill holes and peg them with golf tees. If you get the long ones you can put the golf tee through your thread and bobbin to keep them together.

    • Why couldn't u use some scrap wood like furring strips predrill and put dowel rods In it. Then wire to ironing board.u can also use the medal pegs for peg boards

  • Please please please instructions!
    I have 3 old ironing boards waiting to be recycled, and as a seemster I have a lot of spools.
    I can hardly wait to see how it's done!!!!!
    Com'on Neodim, don't let us down........

  • What a great idea. Will definitely make this for my craft room. large dowels/ small dowels
    measuring tape and drill. a little paint for color. And a few nuts & bolts to attach.
