Hi, this is Chris. Some years ago a few of my friends came to me and asked me if I would design an ironing board cover for their boards. A cover made from a good quality fabric and did not have cheap elastic around it.  Something that would not move and shift about as they ironed, and would last more than six weeks.  So I did, and they have proven to be so popular I receive orders from all around Australia and overseas. 

My covers are made from good quality suede backed fabric with a size three cord running through a poly lining to secure the cover firmly to the board. They come in a large range of colours and designs. I have also designed my covers to fit a range of ironing boards. 

Check out my velco towels as well. Over the years I have had some wonderful crocheted towels, but after a number of washes they deteriorated.  So I have designed a towel where you only have to wash the towel itself and not the padded decorative top section.  They attach and unattach with velcro.  They too have proven very popular. 

My covers can be purchased by ordering direct from me or you may catch me at the PCYC Markets on the corner of Maryborough and Walker Streets Bundaberg each month or the Calliope Markets every second month. 

I look forward to receiving your order or any enquiries.

Chris
