  Where can I find an ironing board that is more pointy at the end? Thanks.

  Nikki, mine’s just a substandard IKEA ironing board so I thought it must be the normal shape. I hadn’t realised there were variations!

  Cool! My ironing board is more pointy at the end than yours but i’m sure with a little manipulation this would be a better way than trying to iron it on the flat of the board.
