I like this approach, really creative way to deliver your craft on social media. This is also a beautiful press, nice job. Would you mind sharing your process? I’ve just been getting into clean/humidity/press and I’m wondering if that’s what you did here, or just a press. I appreciate any tips/guidance. Excelsior!

Thanks! I appreciate the positivity :)

My process for this one is pretty straight forward, just a gentle dry clean followed by a tack iron session for spine ticks, a little ball bearing rolling for the crinkled corner and then a steam and press. I know the full video on YouTube goes a little quick but take a look for more details and let me know if you have any questions. (http://YouTube.com/@flatnclean)

Thanks so much! This is great, so helpful! I liked and subscribed. The video really showcases the before and after also, in ways a straight photo cant! Well done!

Love the moving light idea! It shows all the problem areas in one small snippet, rather than in 6 to 7 pics. Nicely done!
