I’m making the microwave bag for my mom on her special day, she loves popcorn it’s her favorite comfort food. Thank you so much Linda for all the tips and tricks
What a great gift for your mom! So glad you're using one of my templates to create a gift for her. It's a great memory for me, too. It's almost 2 years since I lost my mom. She & her little pooch, Holly, loved popcorn, too!
Thanks! Oh yes; chips can definitely be oily & salty, too. But the tortilla warmer is easy enough to wash. You could also put a couple of paper towels or napkins inside then place the chips. Or, instead of washing each time, place some paper towels or napkins inside afterward to 'soak' up any remnants.
I think I mentioned a few options - the 1st would be the largest Ziploc bags you can find. Cut off the Ziploc part. Secondly, bags that products come in work well, too. All of my templates are shipped in plastic bags & the ones my larger templates (like the larger Circle Templates I use for this project and my larger Microwave Bag Templates) work great for this. You can feel good about recycling with a project like this!
I gotcha - but lots of us have success when following these 3 basic rules: 100% cotton batting with no scrim; 100% cotton fabric with no metallics & 100% cotton thread. Make one & the next time you're in a hotel, try it out! Or give it to a friend who is a risk-taker & have them try it out. And, of course, never microwave just the cozy & bowl or plate without food. It will be safe.

Good evening Linda. I see your #1 fan is with you again tonight. I love watching him also.
Oh yeah, Monkey always has to be a part of my videos. She's such a character!

Aw-thanks, Karol! So glad you are enjoying them & even better, sharing with others!
Love the idea of using all cotton fabric and thread to make items to use in warming up food that is all natural and quick.
Thanks for being here Darla~ I know things are getting down to the wire for you. Good luck with all on your plate!
Lots of fun info 👍. Wonder if tortilla chips are oily?

What kind of plastic would I use in the tortilla bag?
