Excerpt from The Milliners' Guide: A Complete Handy Reference Book for the Workroom, Embraces the Professional Experience of Ages; How to Tint, Dye, Repair, Refresh and Renovate Millinery Goods of Every Kind, How to Turn Odds and Ends Into Money
Steam is the only thing that will positively restore and renew old crepe. If you have not a steamer of the improved pattern, resort to this old and primitive method which never fails: Place an upturned flat iron between two bricks, cover this with a dampened cloth. Place the veil on top of it and move it back and forth and from side to side, gently and carefully brushing in the meanwhile. Crepe should be brushed gently or merely patted lightly. Raising and dropping the brush in quick succession is quite sufficient.
