I have been meaning to make a quick, rice-filled, heat pack for quite some time now and today was the day it finally got made. After one too many instances of needing one and not having one on hand, I finally perused through my fabric stash and decided to use this old Swedish fabric calendar as the fabric.
I forgot to take a picture of the calendar before I cut it up...so here it is just pieced together.
A short while later and here it is! Filled with rice and sectioned off into 4 rectangles. You can microwave the entire pack and the rice retains the heat. Voila. Cheap DIY heat pack. I used this tutorial from the blog Fellow Fellow. I love that I finally found something to use the calendar for!
It's been a great weekend. I can't believe it's already Monday tomorrow. My how time flies. And it's March already?! Wow.
Hope all is well!
You're so clever to use a calendar for this project - great idea!
