Parchment Paper

Yep, parchment paper.  I use this stuff for practically everything.

First of all, I do bake with it.  And if you bake, I highly recommend parchment paper.  I've found it to be a total life saver in the kitchen.  I never bake cookies without it, and it makes removing cakes from the pan so much easier.

But I also keep a separate roll of parchment paper in my craft room.  I use it anytime I need a non-stick work surface, or anytime I'm working on something messy.  Painting and applying patina is always done on parchment.  I use parchment whenever I work with polymer clay to protect my work surface - and then I stick the piece into the toaster oven right on the same piece of parchment.  I also bake shrink plastic on a piece of parchment paper, which allows it to slide as it shrinks.

If you've done any of these activities and needed a good surface to work on, I highly recommend parchment paper.  I don't use much at a time, so a roll lasts me a really long time.  You can get it all over, including Amazon (affiliate link), Michaels, or at the grocery store.
