Household Essentials Ironing Blanket helps you stay freshly pressed when an ironing board is inconvenient. This thin, compact blanket lays over flat surfaces to create a smooth ironing surface out of dressers, desks, and washing machine tops. While it works best on hard surfaces, it also works effectively on softer surfaces like a made bed or the carpet. It is held in place by its non-slip backing. The blanket has a heat and scorch-resistant silicone coating that allows you to iron your clothing safely. Perfect for back to school and college! And it makes a great gift for new apartments and small houses. The ironing blanket rolls up compactly to fit in a closet, on a shelf, or under the bed. Or it folds easily to lay in a drawer. It even stows perfectly in your suitcase for pressing away from home. Stay fresh and pressed with the convenient comfort of a blanket.
