Ironing Boards
or
Ironing Boreds?

Ironing boards are not likely to be a general topic of excitement and stimulation in your life. If you count yourself among the "ironing boreds" you will want to be able to get some ironing tips and techniques for managing the ironing chores so that they are done as quickly as possible and you can get on with something more interesting.

Ironing Tips

The best ironing tip I can give you is to get someone else to do it!

If that is not possible or probable then follow these ironing tips to get the best result possible and make your ironing go a little easier.

A lot of ironing is unnecessary. You can avoid this chore all together if clothing is promptly removed from the dryer. Leaving clothing items in the dryer will allow wrinkles to set as the fabrics are still warm from the drying process.

So to avoid ironing altogether just make sure that clothing is removed, folded, or placed on clothes hangers as soon as it is finished drying.

Ironing Boards

• over the door - Hang it on the back of the door and use it there.


• wall mount - this model is mounted to the wall and always ready for ironing when you are!


• folding - a table top model or a wall mount that folds down. Both are easily stored in a small amount of space.


• cabinet model - unfinished cabinet models that sit proud of the wall and can be stained or painted to match your decor.


• recessed model - a ready made cabinet that can be installed between the studs so that it is flush with your wall.

The Ironing Board Hustle

The problem with the traditional collapsible model is that you have to store it somewhere, wrestle with it to get it out, then set it up, use it, then put it away again. If you do not put it away you know for sure that it will become an instant horizontal surface for you to put stuff on and before you know it you have another pile of clutter!

Let's face it the regular free standing models that we are all used to are just not that user friendly. But there are a lot of variations and styles to choose from.

You might not be transformed from an ironing bored to an ironing enthusiast but these products will help you to use your space more efficiently and make the boring task of ironing just a little more user friendly.

Now That Makes Sense!

There are many different styles and models to help you use your space efficiently but the traditional free standing ironing boards are still available!

But you will need a holder for the board and the iron to make sure they are safely stowed away and ready for the next time you need to use them.

Unless of course you hang up your ironing board in the closet just like your clothing!

Don't want an ironing board at all? Convert the top of your laundry center to an ironing surface. Using these instructions.

Even if you are one of the "ironing boreds", getting the ironing done quickly and efficiently will leave you more time for other things that might just be a little more fun!
