HOW TO RESHAPE A STRAW HAT | Perfect Summer Hat | Christina Joann

[@claire-louisemanning3517]

Hi everyone. Just a quick word of advice ftom someone with experience of dying straw & sinamay and of re-blocking hats. Firstly, be careful. Steam can be very hot. If you have trim etc glued to your hat, be prepared to have to re-glue it as this process, whilst the only way to re-shape a flagging hat, can dissolve glue. (Most trim can either be sewn back on or applied with a water based glue). Also, be careful steaming a drak hat over a light fabric as in this case. Most hat dye is not colourfast, and can bleed onto other fabric surfaces sufficiently to run them. Newspaper pinned onto on ironing board makes a good work surface. Happy hat restoring!

Oh my gosh, thank you. I needed to fix a sun hat with a crease in the crown. I haven’t worn it in over two years. Contemplated tossing it. This just saved it!

When you find a hat that you like and it fits good.. you don't rid of it. you wear it out.

[@nightingaleiom]

It was the crown of the hat , I was concerned about and you did not answer or show that ! But thanks fir suggesting steaming it ! But surely it depends on the type and fineness of the straw in the hat ! Will it work fir a genuine pannama hat ?

[@tapto1317]

It looks better, thanks Christina.

[@christinajoann]

You’re welcome!! 🤩

[@wafflesyrupguy571]

Is it possible to use an iron?

[@christinajoann]

I've thought about that too but I'm not quite sure if the iron will burn the straw.

[@prod.garbagebeats8807]

Keep the iron on the steam setting and you'll be fine

[@SunnyBoysIndia]

Or just Hot Iron it

[@CoffeebreakX2]

I'm afraid of burning it, any tips of heat or even if you can use wax paper over it to save it?

[@prod.garbagebeats8807]

@@CoffeebreakX2 put a damp cloth over it or use the steam setting on the iron

[@PurposMiglard]

HELP I SAW THAT STEAMER IN MY IRON TABLE AND PUT IT AWAY FOR A MOMENT BEFORE I WATCHED THIS
