Making use of ironing boards

I forgot where I had originally seen this idea.  I think it may have been a product listing on Etsy.  But what a great way to take an inexpensive household item and give it another function.  The picture below has used different colored ironing boards after taking off the cover as picnic tables. I doubt it could hold a large amount of weight, but it could be used as a table behind a sofa or against a wall. 

 

I found one very similar to this one at Cure Thrift Shop near Union Square recently, but I doubt its still there.
