Help my straps are lifeless!

After a "Help! My bag straps are lifeless!" plea today,

I thought I would post this here :)

Are your bag handles, straps, wrist strap, etc looking a little wilted? 

If you are a talented pro with an iron...happy ironing! 

If you aren't quite sure-

please use a pressing cloth between the fabric and your iron. 

This avoids any scorching etc. 

What setting should I use-

Steam and high heat helps on the cotton and linen fabrics! 

Mixed cotton fabrics use a medium heat setting. 

Synthetic blends, silk, and polyester, etc use a low heat setting.

If you want to go even a little further-

 Some starch will make them nice and crisp. 

You can use any starch found at local grocery and drug stores. 

Or you can make your own: 1T Cornstarch dissolved in 2 C water.  Make it in a spray bottle and mist the handles before you press. 

If you are really feeling gung-ho-

 Press the rest of your bag while you have it empty

and the iron ready!

Now your straps...and your bags are lovely fresh!
