Whether you want to do a bit of re-organizing and decorating or just need ideas on where to keep your ironing board, here are some simple and creative storage solutions for you. This will help you make the most of your space and keep your ironing board from getting thrown in a cupboard with all the clutter. Discover 7 creative, simple and useful ways to store your ironing board.
Hang up your ironing board with an iron holder
One of the easiest ways to store your ironing board is by hanging it. You can place a metal bracket onto the wall with a basket to hold the iron and a separate bracket to hook the board. There are plenty of ironing board holders available to buy online.
Make an ironing board storage cupboard
If you are looking to create a space for your ironing board, why not make a slim cupboard specifically for your ironing board. Then you don’t have to sift through the clutter in a cupboard to find your board.
Put it in the wardrobe
Keep it in your wardrobe. Depending on how big your closet is, you can keep it in there to keep it out of sight. This works best if you have a wardrobe that is organized or not overly full.
Place it between the washing machine and the wall.
This may sound like an obvious solution, but ironing boards are slender so you can slot it down by the side of your washing machine or tumble dryer.
Create a built-in ironing board
If you have enough space under your laundry room cabinets, you can place your ironing board underneath or make it built-in. If you have a high table or counter that has nothing under it you can slide the board and keep it standing. It will save you the hassle of folding it up over and over again.
Use cheap heavy duty wall hooks
Sometimes a couple of well-placed and heavy-duty wall hooks will do the job well. This is a cheap and easy solution, you just need to make sure that the hooks are properly spaced apart to attach the ironing board.
Storage baskets and ironing board all-in-one
You can buy something like the ironing center that contains a folding ironing board placed on top of storage baskets or you can make your own like in the video below. It is perfect for extra storage and can be used as a table as well.
