Heat Resistant Curling Iron Bag – Sewing Tutorial
![Picture of Curling Iron Bag [ouryellowrides.blogspot.com] - Tipnut.com](http://tipnut.com/projectpics/curlingiron-bag.jpg)
Today’s feature is from Suzanne with a free sewing tutorial for a Heat Resistant Curling Iron Bag:
When we travel I do my hair just as we are leaving. I hate having to put the hot curling iron in the luggage. So once I became interested in sewing again I looked for a pattern to make something that will keep the heat from ruining anything. Saw where someone has a patent on some kind of curling iron bag, also saw advertisements for bags selling for $20 and up – didn’t even look.
I tried to modify instructions from a tote bag I found on line but just couldn’t get it to do what I wanted with two different fabric patterns and with the heat resistant lining. After trying four times and having all four not being what I was looking for I had an “Eureka” moment. So here it is – my first pattern. The pattern assumes people already know how to sew.
Materials Needed Include:
- 28″ piece of ribbon, lace, cord or whatever you like
- Thread
- Permanent fabric adhesive
- Cotton Fabric
- Heat resistant lining
Nice project and perfect for toting around a curling iron when traveling!

I made a quick, cute curling iron holder by stitching two potholders, each with one heat-resistant side, into a pocket (shiny side in). Voila! The potholders even have a hanging loop already attached! In a pinch you can slip the curling iron into an oven mitt.
Do you have instructions on how to do this? I’d love to have it!

Great idea Camille! Makes things nice and easy…thanks for sharing that tip
.
I’ve seen where someone even took the long heat resistant potholder mitt and turned it inside out. Just put the heating instrument inside and it’s good to go!
I just bought a hot pad (for kitchen use), folded it over with silver side IN, and sewed it up the top and back, leaving opening at bottom for curling iron. Can decorate with lace, or whatever!
