Please what did you use the kettle for.I didn’t quiet get it’s use in the video

[@elenashvabmillinery]

Hi Susana, thank you for watching my video! I am using kettle steam to shape curls of the sinamay bias, it also helps to soften the material. Please be careful working with steam, keep your hands atleast 50cm high when steaming

[@yvanessagonzalez8320]

[@Tonti7]

Thank you for the great lessons. I came across your channel yesterday. And I subscribed immediately. Looove all the way from South Africa😍. What do you call the material you use to iron on top of the sinmay?

[@elenashvabmillinery]

So nice to hear, thank you so much for watching! 😊 i use kitchen baking paper, it helps to protect both iron and material from burning and dirt.

[@afiriyieadwoa5442]

Please what did you do to with the hot water coz I only saw it boiling

[@elenashvabmillinery]

Hi and thank you for watching my hat making tutorials! The hot water creates steam that makes sinamay straw flexible and allows it to mould into shapes easily. I am using a kettle to create steam. You can also use garment steamer or iron steamer. Whatever you have available. Hope that helps?

[@ifeomaude7214]

Did you insert the bias inside rhe boil water?

[@elenashvabmillinery]

No, I used steam of boiled water to shape and mould Sinamay straw.

[@patiencepaintsil3050]

[@purpledelbespoke]

Please did you dip it into the kettle of water.. I think it wasn't too clear

[@elenashvabmillinery]

Hello Abigail, thank you for watching my video! I dont dip material into the kettle water, but I’am using kettle steam to create curls and shape sinamay straw. Sorry it was not clear in the video. Happy hat making, Elena

[@favourakudochuks6220]

Helloo. pls what do you mean by using kettle steam to create curls and shape Sinamay straw? Because I didn't understand how/what you used the kettle for.

[@dezainadn2483]

ماإسم القماش الأول

[@MissBoakyeInspireHer]

Why do you have the boiling water

[@elenashvabmillinery]

Steam of a boiling water soften the straw and helps to manipulate and shape the material

[@makecashnow6714]
