Know before you buy
The hot pad is filled with real spices that are activated by the warmth of your cookware. Placing a hot dish on the pad gently heats these spices, releasing a festive aroma into your kitchen.
Yes, the Christmas Cardinal Spiced Hot Pad is machine washable. We recommend following standard care instructions for cotton textiles to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the longevity of the spice filling.
Because the scent is derived from real spices, the intensity may naturally diminish after repeated use and washing. However, the pad remains a functional and decorative kitchen accessory throughout the holiday season.
This hot pad measures 10 by 10 inches, providing a generous surface area for most standard-sized baking dishes, pots, and pans.
The hot pad is designed for protecting countertops and tables from hot dishes. While it is made of durable cotton, it is best used as a trivet or for handling warm items rather than as a heavy-duty mitt for reaching deep into a high-heat oven.
