I doubt that. If I accidentally iron plastic, it melts and sticks to the iron, and some adhesives are really nasty when heated, too. That's why I asked Kate what her experience was.
I use the old fashioned linen paper lick-em-yourself type, or the paper pre-licked ones, not the plastic ones. No failures in 25 years...
Kewl! I think if I dig around, I can find some of the old-fashioned ones around here somewhere.
Thanks,

{Shrug} the paper not-holes should be ok though
I am glad the topic came up though. It would be just like me to buy the plastic.
Ayou're right of course, I wasn't thinking of that when I mentioned the plastic ones only that they were available. If I were to iron over them I would make sure they were on the bottom side of the paper and slick over them quickly so as to not do damage if possible... Kitty
