Portable Pressing Pad

When I was planning for my new craft room, I searched for ideas on Pinterest. I saw a great idea for a portable ironing pad/board and knew I wanted to make one too. So this tutorial will walk you through my take on making a handy portable pressing pad/board.

I would have moved the fold so the scrap was larger to give bigger scrap to use on small press pads

Love, love your board !!! Fits prefect!!! 👍🏿👏🏿🙌🏼👊🙏🏻

[@sheriesinger825]

I loved how when you made a mistake you made it work! That made it so real for me. I can't wait to make my own!!

[@apippin774]

Great idea and great idea for an rv!

[@Alleellaa]

So helpful!! You are an inspirational creative woman! Thank you

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

Thank you!

[@clkbunny6766]

Love this project. My only critique would be the echo in your craft room. the sound seems to be bouncing around the hard surfaces in your room. maybe you should consider an area rug to help absorb the sound.

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

Thanks for the input. This video is actually one that I did quite some time ago. I am hoping that my more recent tutorials do not have the sound issue.

[@susanhouser3676]

I love it! I will be making myself one that’s for sure. ❤️

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

Wonderful!

[@linvallier2269]

Interesting, however I needed to view with no sound due to the reverberating echo off the surfaces in your room.

2:40 if you're in a hurry. Thanks for the video!

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

You are welcome

That is so cute! And handy! I felted an old army blanket to make a portable pressing pad. Do you think that would work instead of batting?

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

I would assume that it is made of wool. If so yes. In fact I have a wool pressing mat.

[@sandraholt3462]

Great job and I love your fabric choice! One concern I have is with the staples. Will they not scratch the top of your chest drawers?

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

That is why I use the rubber backing. My staples sunk into the backing and has not scratched my countertop.

[@maliksutton6634]

Hi Mrs Lisa, I love how your portable pressing pad turned out and know it's gonna come in handy when you're crafting. Also, I just commented on your no sew mask extenders video moments ago.

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

Thanks, I am glad you liked the tutorial!

[@maliksutton6634]

You're welcome and I always watching your tutorials.

[@brendabryant60]

In another video (making a valance)I noticed you left your iron flat on your fabric....eeek were you not afraid it would scorch your fabric?

[@FunstuffcraftsLisaWelander]

Thanks for the comment! Sometimes when I video I get caught up in talking but I am always careful with my iron and fabric. Thanks for noticing and asking!

[@lindadalton2668]

Wow the eco of the bathroom is really bad bad choice of space

[@lindadalton2668]

So much time wasted on showing us how Yao fold and unfold batting and on and on. Please get to the project we can cut a square sorry
