Please note, this cleaning method should not be used on other types of fabrics.
The felt hat: why choose it?
Treat yourself to a new felt hat, and enjoy the many benefits of this material, made mainly of wool!
That’s right, felt is soft and comfortable. In winter, it protects you from the cold and the wind, thanks to the thermoregulatory properties of wool. In addition, the felt hat is able to effectively wick away perspiration, keeping your head dry. But, to preserve the characteristics of felt, it is essential to maintain it well!
What you need:
- A large saucepan
- Optional: essential oil for scent
Steps for cleaning your felt hat:
1) Pour a large volume of water into a large saucepan or pot.
2) Boil everything on the stove. Add a few drops of essential oil if desired.
3) Place your hat over the steam, making sure to do both sides and focus on the area where you generally sweat the most. Clumsy friends, be careful not to burn yourself at this step!
4) Do this for a few minutes and… that’s it! Your hat will smell better and be cleaner. This will give you a great excuse to wear it every day!
