Mini Casserole Carriers


Did you know that my casserole carriers are my most popular TaylorMade craft ever? It's true, they have more views, comments and "pins" than any other craft every single month. I also get many emails every week asking about them. So naturally, it is kind of a go to gift for me- I like to make them as a wedding gift or a Christmas present. But what if the recipient doesn't need a whole casserole? They are only one person and they just want to take their lunch in a cute little mini version... so I created the Mini-Casserole Carrier. It might even be cuter than the original. Why is everything cuter if its small? The cuteness started with this tiny little 3cup glass Pyrex dish I found, the perfect lunch size. 


The cover couldn't be easier...
All you need:
fabric 
insul-bright 
velcro


Cut both pieces of fabric and the insul-bright to 16 1/2" x 6 1/2". Put right sides of fabric together with the insul-bright on top then sew all the way around leaving an opening. Flip and top stitch all the way around. Then add the Velcro. I also added a TaylorMade tag.



I also had to add the name to the Pyrex in tradition Casserole Carrier Style. I think that is why people love them so much. Just like on my other Pyrex dishes, I using etching cream and a vinyl stencil for the name. Find the originals here and here.
