By consciously caring for your accessory you’ll extend its life and in turn reduce your environmental impact. - Raffia has a natural resin and while it may start to break down and soften after a while, you can help reactivate the natural resins by using a little steam. - The resin might be visible when you steam darker coloured raffia. Simply brush it off with a soft dry cloth or brush once it’s dry. - Stuff the crown with colourless, acid free tissue paper. - Use a domestic iron on the steam setting or a traditional clothes steamer. Steam the outer and inner sections of the hat until warm and slightly moist to touch. Make sure the iron plate is about 10cm away from the hat; don’t let the iron directly touch the hat. - Reform the hat to the desired shape with your hands whilst the hat is drying naturally. - Brim edges can be reshaped by running your fingers and thumb along the brim edge in a very gentle stretching motion. - Allow to cool and dry naturally in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight.
