 how to get wrinkles out of a tutu?
Anyone have suggestions on how to get wrinkles out of a no sew tutu? I am shipping them in a box and when it gets there it will be all crumbled. I wanted to put instructions in there on how to care for her tutu. But need some advice on how to get the wrinkles and creases out! thanks ashley  |

my mom makes tutus and when she made my daughters it ended up on the floor in room where it then got shoved under her bed, kids, gotta luv them, i hung it from a hanger though with 2 clothes pins and left it in the bathroom one day while showering, it seemed to take a lot of the wrinkles out, not all of them but a lot of them, also when i ship them for her i fold the tutu in half at the waistband and then in half lengthwise, like you would a towel and then i put it in a 2 gallon zip loc baggie before putting it in the shipping box, then it ships in a smaller box and doesn't get all wrinkled, just make sure you squeeze all the air out of the baggie when you seal it  Cathi Last edited by littlepeabows; 03-03-2009 at 10:33. |

A steamer or... straighten and fluff with with your hands as much as it will. hang in a bathroom with the hot shower on for 10 minutes. That should do it.

I actually put a piece of fabric over the tulle and iron it work great!

This is an OLD post (March 2009), but exactly the question I was going to start a new thread on. I am sending a tutu to someone and wanted to include "care instructions". Other than the above - does anyone else have other instructions they use or a great way of boxing it up for shipping? Thank you!

Stacey - thank you. I think I just need to put something in writing and get it done. Seems like the spot wash and steam does the trick.

) tutus can be spot cleaned with a damp washcloth if they encounter frosting, ice-cream, etc.; tutus that encounter wrinkles from storage or play can be easily fixed - place in bathroom while a hit shower runs for 10-15 minutes, grab tutu my waistband and give a good shake - good as new!
