There is nothing fun about getting burned.
I have to admit that I’m a little afraid of my oven. Not the biggest fan of the racks, heat and that big door that seems to jump at my elbows when ever it can!
No matter how many times I use it I always forget that it’s hot. The steam always rushes to my face….. yeah. Not the smartest when it comes to cooking.
The microwave…..while I don’t use it as much as the oven, it can be a little deceiving. There is no red glowing light letting us know- hey that’s kind of hot!
There is not a red coil when heating and a glow from the broiler.
Because of this, many times we forget that— darn it, it’s hot in there!
Those bowls get hotter than the food in the bowl!
There are a few microwave sewing projects that I love and use all time…as well as a few projects to help keep our little fingers safe from blisters and deceiving hot plates.
These easy to sew projects will work inside your microwave….meaning that you’ll be using a special batting inside that will keep the heat as well as not catch on fire.
Materials for Microwave projects:
batting- 100% cotton only –wrap and zap batting is made just for using in the microwave
