Flat Iron Case!!!
I use my flat iron everyday and even more-so when I’m on vacation. When I’m travelling, after I’m finished using my flat iron… I usually wrap it in a t-shirt to make sure I don’t burn anything in my suitcase because it stays HOT for a long time after it’s unplugged OR I pack everything and wait for it to cool before I pack it. ANNOYING!!
I while back I came across a flat iron case by Your Creative Juices. I thought it was a GENIUS idea!
Flat Iron Case
Step 1: Get yourself a 8”x10” pot holder with a pocket*. Step 2: Fold it in half and sew along bottom and the side (or be lazy like me and use hot-glue haha). Step 3: Take out some buttons and decorate them with embroidery thread. Step 4: Cut some leaves out of felt and decorate them with embroidery thread and more felt. Step 5: Hot glue your leaves and buttons onto your case to make cute little flowers.
*The pot holder pocket is useful to insert the flat iron cord.
That is so cute! I have a curling iron case from ions ago that I put my flat iron it, but it is ugly! I need to make one of these…so cute.
Awesome idea! I hate waiting to pack my stuff because the flat iron is still hot. This is brilliant!

This is brilliant! I always have to wait to pack my flat iron – I will definitely have to do this.

I do the same thing wait and wait for my iron to cool or wrap it up since it’s not “cool” enough. LOL This is such a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
This is adorable! I love it! Thanks for sharing at the Pomp Party! Pinning!
Great idea! Mine are always getting into a tangled mess in the drawer–definitely need to make one of these to store it in!
Thanks for the tutorial!
Love this Christine! You are so right about it being annoying to have to wait for it to cool, and gasp what if you accidentally leave it behind because you didn’t pack it right away! Great job, thanks for sharing:)

So cute & practical :)
This is such a great idea! The case that came with my flat iron isn’t very practical. Your idea seems like a perfect solution to the case problem! Thanks for sharing on Marvelous Mondays.
That is a great idea! I love the flowers. Megan

This is super cute. I don’t use a flat iron (too lazy) but it would make a super gift for my friends that do. Thanks so much for sharing!
ok now you are approaching genius level my friend
This is so much cuter than the one I use, and not hard to make! Very good idea!
What a great idea. I came over from Michelle’s Tasty Creations. I’m excited to see more of your projects!
This is brilliant! Not only is this perfect for the flat-iron…this totally helps out my addiction to buying new potholders!
So cute! Thanks for sharing!

I also never thought of using a t-shirt though.. I’d always just leave it out for a while!
