Ironing Board Redo

My ironing board cover was sad.
  very sad.
 like embarassingly sad. 
seriously.
see?

I have customers coming in to my little studio & it's embarrassing that this is what they see.
Wouldn't you be embarrassed?

But, no longer. 
Because my ironing board cover now looks like this:


Yeah! 
Love. Love. Love it!
I recovered it with Amy Butler's French Belle Fabric.
When I first laid eyes on this fabric, I knew that I had to have it.  I just didn't know what I was
going to do with it.  Is that wrong?
That's just the way that I roll.

Then I used this super easy tutorial
by Lisa over at U-Handbag.
It is really super easy to follow & only took me about an hour to do.
And now viola,
I am no longer embarrassed for people to come back into my little studio!
Yeah!

  4. Kay,
    I don't remember where I got it. I ordered it online years ago. It is a small size one, like a table top, but it swings down to get out of the way when not in use. It is a genius idea & I love it. I would highly recommend doing a google search because it is fabulous!
