US Patent 7721923 Apparatus and method for textile maintenance

An apparatus for textile maintenance comprises a base component containing a plurality of holes and at least one coupling member. Multiple base components may be interlocked by means of the coupling member(s). Retention members snugly fit into the plurality of holes of a base component. The retention members support one or more textile pieces adjacent to a base component. Additionally, the retention members may be used to stack a base component onto another base component. A user may then use a base component or any combination of base components to perform textile maintenance, such as drying or starching.
