					<description><![CDATA[I love this size!  We are having a Toy Story Baby Boy Shower and these will be great to decorate with.  I am going to laminate them so my granddaughter can use them in the nursery afterwards, if she wishes.  Thank you so much for sharing!  Love it !!]]></description>

Jody, thanks so much for letting me know!  I had updated some of the links earlier this week but I guess I missed some. I&#039;ve just gone through and updated them all.

Deanna, adding cornstarch makes the cookie softer, thicker, and chewier by reducing the gluten.  It also helps to reduce spreading.]]></description>

Kelly, you could certainly use a blanket or any material you like.  For me, the big benefit of using a towel was that it was already the right size and I didn&#039;t need to hem the edges :)  Let us know how it goes!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I haven’t made mine yet, but I am getting ready to!  My apologies if this was mentioned in a previous comment and I missed it but I bet you could also make something similar using a light blanket and cutting out two headrest slits for the backseat! I have a bronco and I like to take the tops off and definitely need something for my passengers in this south Texas heat!!  Can’t wait to try them both out!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you for the idea - easy to install, clean, replace. The hard part for me is being as artful. So I decided to paint the same size as the acrylic sheet with the same color I am painting the countertop but without the sealer. The acrylic sheet will go on top of the color. Since my storage room is all white paint, with white shelves and white wire basket storage units of drawers, I am also painting the bottom wood shelves with the same color as the countertop and backsplash. It&#039;s just a bit of color in a clean, white, room. But the space behind the utility tub is now solved - thanks to you.]]></description>
