    Removing creases from hat

    soak it with a spray bottle of distilled water & use something to iron out the creases, like a bowl or large spoon & a steam iron. Use a handkerchief between the felt & the steam iron. If you do this a lot, a Hat Shaper block is a good buy = http://www.hatshapers.com/ factory crease = open...
