Laundry rooms often struggle with being either too cramped to accommodate all essentials or too spacious, leading to disorganization. Consequently, they frequently turn into “stuff” rooms rather than functional spaces for washing and drying clothes. Ideally, the laundry room is the perfect spot for your iron and ironing board if space permits. However, ironing boards can be cumbersome to store, regardless of location. If accessing it becomes a hassle, you might end up neglecting the task, much like ignoring the back of your hair — out of sight, out of mind. Fortunately, creative thinkers have devised a solution that incorporates both an ironing board and a mirror into your laundry room without occupying extra space or resorting to DIY alternatives.
Instagram user @lifebyhampton shared a video showcasing their innovative idea of placing a foldable ironing board within a wall-mounted mirror. They accomplished this by fitting a mounted ironing board inside the frame of a swing-open mirror, reminiscent of an oversized medicine cabinet. This setup allows for quick access to the ironing board and easy storage once finished. The beautifully framed mirror not only serves a practical purpose but also adds a stylish touch to the room. Since the ironing board remains hidden when not in use, this solution is perfect for those living in small spaces or without a dedicated laundry room. It can also work seamlessly in a closet or bedroom without sacrificing space.
