[@gideonjoshbiano9984]

does this mixture work on black fabrics? like it doesn't leave a white stains?

[@Twistfashion]

Yes, I use it on dark coloured felt, just make sure you get the proportions right.

[@gideonjoshbiano9984]

@@Twistfashion thank you so much.

[@NayaTillah]

The fabric looks good, can you tell what kind is that?

[@Twistfashion]

Hi I used felt and sinamay :)

[@mmaditshabamlandeni3861]

Hi, can you please show us the measurements of making a good stiffner? I would like to know how please madam. From South Africa

[@Twistfashion]

I use equal parts PVA glue and Water.

[@tuyke452]

Can I use pva glue with a straw hat (vintage boater hat) ?

[@Twistfashion]

In all honesty, I'm not sure I have never made a boater hat before, but I don't see why not if it's made from straw.

[@Nosiphoyose]

were must get pva glue

[@vanessanuemo5468]

Please can you give the name of all the material that I will use to make my one?

[@Twistfashion]

The material I used is Sinamay and I used PVA glue or you can get special hat stiffener from millinery shops.

Hi. Will this stiffen eva foam? Does it crack when bent?

[@Twistfashion]

Im not sure, sorry.

[@IAmHillahMixel]

Does it works with fake leather?

[@Twistfashion]

I have never tried, but I think it should work.

[@michellecozens5870]

Hey! Great video. Super helpful. What's the song you used? I like it. :)

[@Twistfashion]

Thank you! Sorry I can't remember what the song is called.

[@devonzebrovious5070]

Where did you get the large (metal?) base you used?

[@Twistfashion]

You can buy hat blocks from Ebay.

[@devonzebrovious5070]

@@Twistfashion Yes, I am well aware of that, but my Question didn't ask regarding generic blocks. Did you purchase that metal one on eBay, or from somewhere else?

[@Twistfashion]

@@devonzebrovious5070 oh, sorry, didn't mean to step on your toes. I got it many years ago, from a charity shop.

[@devonzebrovious5070]

@@Twistfashion You didn't, I was just looking for something specifically like that, and didn't want to miss an opportunity to get one if they were available for purchase, hence wanting a direct answer to the question. Thanks!

Hi It's PVA glue also called Modge podge and can be found in crafts or DIY shops

[@nnn608]

Thank you

[@dianerosedesigns]

Really? I’m lost. 🤭😮

[@Twistfashion]

Sorry, just put the fabric in the stiffener and place it on a hat block. I hope that helps xx

Could've done without the cheesy side dance music but the video instructions were helpful

[@Twistfashion]

Thank you for the feedback! I'm working on a new 'how to block a hat video' without music.

Thanks April, yes I will support you too!

[@jenna2431]

Why paint it? Just dunk it into your glue mix. Awful music, by the way.

[@Twistfashion]

Dunk away, and press that mute button! Off now to work on my music he he!
