Satin Chair Sashes & Table Runners...

I just took these out of the box last night and they are all creased!! I ironed 4 of them until I realized I have 240 to do The 4 alone took me 30 min.

Anyone have any ideas how I can dot his faster? I tried a hand held steamer and it didnt work.. and I dont want to bring them to the dry cleaners bc im sure that would get expensive.

I have 11 days to do this and NO time this weekend

You think throwing them on a gentle cycle in the dryer would work?

im clueless!

TIA

Re: Satin Chair Sashes & Table Runners...

lay as many as you can in the bathroom and put the shower water on steaming hot - the steam should unwrinkle them

Re: Satin Chair Sashes & Table Runners...

OH WOW Jenny!!!
Good Luck!! I can't believe the hand held steamer isn't working! That's what i was going to suggst! Oh and I'm worried too... because I think we have the same sashes (someone on here recomended them and I feel like it was you.. but I can't go looking back to all those FM's!!). Keep me posted on what you do if you can (if not I'll hunt you down in a month!! ).

good luck!!

I LOVE LOVE hearing girls who are soo close talk about the wedding!! it's adorable! I can't wait to be that close!!!!

YAY for you guys!!!!

Hey Kerri! I found the best way is to iron each one individually... its a huge PITA. Dont put them in the dryer!!! I tried one and its destroyed. And yes I believe i recommended them to you so we have the same ones

My suggestion start ironing early and hang them up after. I have soooooo many more to do!

The hand steamer doesnt work at all.. they need the pressure of the iron the creases are REALLY in there. At first I put the iron on really hot and put a thin towel over the chair sash and used steam as well.. now i just use the iron on a medium setting with no steam right on the sash. I dropped the table runners off at the dry cleaners to be pressed since I feel like if those are a little wrinkled you would notice it alot more thant he chair shashes..

Well now i have a reason to use my iron!!! AND something to do this weekend!! haha!!!

Hmm... now I have to figure out how to hang those suckers and store them. Maybe I should start in October?? Hmm. It's hard because you never know when you will have time. Things just jump out at you.

Sooo glad you told me about this!! I knew there were wrinkels... but i registered for the hand steamer and I was thinking I'd use that!
