I use mine all the time and don't get burnt. The cotton loops are a little more expensive, but I think its worth it. I like the idea of framing some!Rachel @ The Philosophers Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03791960895210808388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9006261168236539559.post-76311082545285672392012-03-30T15:15:33.316-04:002012-03-30T15:15:33.316-04:00So cute!

My daughter has a frame but the loops that come with it aren't heat resistant, and I'd like to find some that are, so we could actually use the pot holders that she makes?

I've also thought of framing them in my kitchen or making a banner. With a cute pattern like this I just might do that.
