Abstract: An ironing board apparatus includes a horizontally oriented ironing board mounted on an arm such that the ironing board continuously pivots about a first vertical axis spaced near a distal end of the arm, which, in turn, continuously pivots about a second vertical axis spaced near the other or proximal end of the arm such that the ironing board apparatus is angularly displaceable to and from a stored configuration and an operative configuration. The components interacting at the first and second axes are friction fit to resist forces and moments created during use of the ironing board apparatus. The ironing board apparatus includes a vertical supporting post with an encircling collar for adjusting the height of an ironing board thereof. The ironing board apparatus includes an accessory tray mounted on an underside of the ironing board. The invention also comprises a kit for using an existing base cabinet for the ironing board apparatus.
