Even though the freezer has nothing to do with it
(in our case)!
The name might be misleading for anyone wanting to use it for creative purposes: Freezer paper was originally designed to preserve food in the freezer, but it’s incredibly popular among fans of creative sewing and all kinds of crafts and hobbies. The reason is simple: thanks to its structure — a layer of sturdy paper combined with a very thin plastic coating — it’s the perfect solution for many projects.
For example, you can use it to create stencils for decorating accessories and more, or iron it onto delicate kraft paper to make it thicker, more durable, and reusable. In quilting, freezer paper is ideal for creating reusable appliqué shapes or piecing together intricate patterns.
And that’s not all, for this “magical paper” can even go through your home printer (on the non-coated side), letting you print your designs and use them in any creative way you like.
