February 18th - TIP OF DAY at Emblibrary is mine this time. Hehehe!

good tip...also if you are done take a small piece of stick and replace the torn out piece...works for at least 5 or 6 or more times times before you have to replace with a new sheet.This was taught to me about 15 years ago.

Good for you and what a fine tip.

I never would have thought of that either, but it sure makes sense and I will be doing that shortly.
Thanks

Good one Shirlene. Here in Aus we have ironing board covers made from a special reflective material and I won't use anything else.
I absolutely loathe ironing!!!

I have a feeling that every has been thought of before. We just seem to be recycling the ideas. Maybe a few generations later.

Great going Shirlene, UMMM Now there goes my excuse since my ironing basket is still full.Stella

I just think of things that I do around the embroidery room and write them down and then submit them - try it - you would be amazed at how easy it is. Hehehe!

Great idea, I would guess you could lower the temp on your iron too...

congrats...good tip, do you have to change the foil often? thanks, betty

1 comment

by shirlener88 18 Feb 2011

Not very often - it doesn't break down - as nothing is really touching it. However - if you feel it is breaking down - change it.
