Quick Trick



Just another drive-by post:
Here's a really useful trick for fitting the tops of butter dishes. Since they need to be shaped and fitted while still quite wet, the lid can sometimes stick to the plate, or cause marring. I lay toilet paper between the two pieces to prevent this. It also useful for storing lidded pots before they are fully dry.

Very smart. I'll have to remember that. Thanks.

I use a thin, texture free fabric scrap. I can use it to lift the lid when it's dry enough to lift without stressing a handle and it's reusable again and again.

Great idea! And I love the butter dish.

This is a great concept, I use it on lidded pieces to keep them from sticking together while setting up.
