My daughter and I went to the flea market last weekend,
and I found quite a few little goodies, including this old
iron cooling rest. It only cost 50 cents and since we
are just starting the remodeling of our laundry room,
I thought this would make a fitting decoration for the room.
I wanted to do something fun with it, and a verse
from Philippians 3:14 popped into my head, so
I used some Scrabble tiles to form the words, “Press On”.
Then scanned the verse from an old Bible,
printed it out on transfer paper, and ironed
it onto a scrap of canvas and glued it to the iron rest.

The people of Israel were instructed by God to
write His word, “on the doorposts of your house”, (Deut. 6:9)
and I’ve always thought that was such a beautiful way
to remind them to love God with their whole heart,
so I like finding ways to write His word in my home as well.
Press On!
Love the idea for the iron press. You are so darn clever!!! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
What a creative use for the iron cooling rest! I love how it combines whimsical home decor with a meaningful verse from the Bible.: )

What a great idea! I love that you incorporated the verse in there.
Thats an adorable idea for the laundry. If any room needs uplifting, its the laundry where the work never ends. Great idea of adding the verse.

Cute project, Angie, and a lovely scripture!
An iron press plate. Love it and the verse.

Clever idea and so nice to have God’s word surrounding you as you move through all the tasks of the day.
Angie I never saw your iron rest before now! I put scrabble magnets on mine as well… who knew?! Love it! It is no wonder I love Knick of Time so much… your style is just what I <3!
