MY OLD HAT MADE NEW
Any Clever Woman Readily Can Learn the Knack of Renovating Millinery
C ARLOTTA M. B ROWN .
Instructor In Millinery, Home Economics Division, University of Minnesota
left-over hat is one item to which
THE every woman should give her most
careful consideration when planning
a season's outfit (whether for fall or
for spring) since the purchase of a new hat
—at present prices—means the cutting of
a tremendous hole in the monthly budget.
And consideration of the left-over hat
means renovation of its materials.
The very first step to take towards the
renewing of a used piece of velvet is to
remove all threads and brush the velvet
with a soft bristle brush, that as much of
the dust as possible may be removed before
the process of steaming is began.
Place two bricks about two inches
apart so as to permit a space for the handle
of the flat iron to be. placed between
them. If you have no bricks take a deep
pan and place therein the -iton—handle
down and flat surface upward, or if such
a pan is not in your kitchen outfit, just
turn the iron on its side on a table. This
last method, however, requires a bit more
skill in the pulling of the velvet over the
edge of the iron. Any iron may be used
but if an electric iron is available its use
is much to be preferred as it does not re-

quire reheating and is easily regulated.
After the iron (hot) has been placed in
position, spread over it some four thicknesses
of cotton cloth—old sheeting or pillow
cases will do—which have been dipped
in warm water and well wrung out. Over
this wet cloth put just one thickness of dry
cloth that no water may soak through
the velvet; Draw the velvet over the iron
brushing constantly with a soft bristle
brush while doing so and always in the direction
of the nap, never against it. It is

Right You Can Curl the Flues Without Breaking
very easy to determine the direction of
the nap by running the fingers over the
velvet. If the nap remains smooth the
fingers are going in the right direction; if
the surface roughens the fingers are running
against the nap. In following these
directions be sure to let tne steam do the
work. This is an added reason for having
the dry covering over the dampened
cloth, for most persons, when first steam-
.ning velvet, press down too hard with the
brush and many times spoil the goods by
getting it thoroughly wet instead of leaving
the work of cleaning for the steam.
All of this may sound as if it were a long
process but in reality it takes but a moment
or two, for the velvet must be passed
over the steam before the strength of it is
exhausted.
You will find that most old velvets are
tion of the nap and not against it. Begin
at the left of the strip of velvet and take
long, light strokes with the iron, never
allowing the outer edge of the iron (or
the. edge farther from the body) to touch
the velvet. By holding this outer edge
from.the velvet all streaks will he avoided.
After the iron has been taken the full
width of the ironing board return to the
starting point and iron another strip
entirely across the board, overlapping the
first strip a very little to avoid a streak
in the goods. The velvet is then turned
to the right side and the same process is
repeated. Unless the velvet has been
very badly treated in the wearing it will
come back to life as good as new and may
be used over again, not once but many
times.
Plush may be steamed in the same manner
as velvet but it should not be ironed as
the nap of plush is very heavy and should
be upstanding.
All velveteens of light color may be
washed in tepid suds made from good
white soap. Follow the washing with
good rinsing but never wring the goods as
wringing will crease. After the velveteen
is dry brush it well with a stiff brush to
raise the nap.
Black or dark velveteens and velvet
ribbons should be steamed but never
ironed. Grease spots may be removed
from dark velvets by rubbing the spots
with a dark cloth saturated with turpentine.
And now for the satins. Black satin
may be made like new by sponging lightly
with a solution made of one teaspoonful
of borax to one quart of water. When
very much better looking after having
been ironed, or, mirrored, to use our term.
To do this, velvet is turned on the wrong
side—after having been steamed—and the
iron is run lightly over the velvet. Here,
again, be sure to send the iron in the directhe
satin is nearly dry, press lightly on the
wrong side with a moderately hot iron,
first having placed the satin on a heavilypadded
ironing board.
Ribbons are very hard to handle and
great care should be taken with them.
The only ribbon that ever should be
treated to an actual bath is the wash taffeta.
This may be put in a basin and
washed as is any other soft cloth. After
it has been smoothed out and wrapped in
a clean, white cloth that some of the water
may be absorbed, it is laid between, two
other clean, white cloths and pressedwith
a hot iron. Other ribbons should be
cleaned with gasoline or some good cleaning
fluid and then steamed, as pressing
stiffens them. It is impossible to bring
back the color to colored ribbons after
they have been sunburned but if these
ribbons are but slightly faded the color
may be restored, in part at least, by sponging
them with chloroform, which, it is
hardly needless to mention , should be
done in the open air.
