The sound of that rustling! They give the skirt so much volume (and it's a fabulous skirt), This was very cool to watch. Thank you.
Thank you🤗
My mother used to starch my father’s shirt collars with cornstarch. My job to iron!
Hi I had forgotten how much fun you can have starching garments, one of my first jobs was head of wardrobe and I had 2 shows going on at the same time, one show was all sailor uniforms, so every night they had to be washed and starched ready for the next day's two shows, six days a week for seven weeks. Lol Jason from England 🤓
Oh lord!! 😂😂😂 you must have had very soft hands from all that starching back then😊
Nice and crispy! I always love the sound that starched cotton makes. I starched mine once now, but in retrospect I wanted them a bit stiffer still, so might have to try out this recipe at some point!
It’s kinda a surprise egg every time to be honest, you don’t know how they will turn out, u till they are dry😂
I love the sound the corded petticoat makes!
Hehehe😂 crunch crunch
@@Leeam Exactly!
This was by far the easiest and simple starching method that I have seen yet . I’m definitely going to try this one out.
Thank you! And good luck💪🏼
This was fun! I love your purple skirt trim. It just makes me smile. :)
Thank you🤗
Fantastic video title! I also loved seeing how the little bustle pad ties into your corded petticoat.
Thank you! Yeah not very comfortable to get that starched along😂🙈
So cool! I had no idea about starching petticoats! I love the demonstration at the end. It really makes a huge difference 🙌🏽
Cocovid was wonderful! And that rustling noise of the starched petticoats is just lovely 🥰
🤗
Great sound. Clear instructions. Helpful and motivating. Thank you.
Thank you 🙏🏽
I am brand new to your channel. I didn't know this is how to starch the petticoats. I had only seen the spray starch before. Thank you so much for showing us this technique.
Welcome! And thank you 😊
So wonderfully crisp!
❤️❤️❤️
That's wonderful. I love how the corded one has a mind of its own. It's a very interesting process and I can definitely see how starching your petticoats would make a big difference in the fall of the skirt. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day.
Thank you😊 and yes that corded one, definitely has a mind of its own
lee-am, i have an idea for you! make the cold corn starch slurry but boil it with a small percentage of the water you add. instead of 12 cups, for example, only add 4 cups. bring that to a boil, then combine it in you silicone basket with the remaining 8 needed cups of water. the cornstarch mixture will be as dilute as your original recipe but it will cool much faster and there will be less dangerous hot solution to manage
The noise they make when starched makes me feel all calm and sleepy.
I really need to do this! :-) I was about to ask about that clothing rack too, until I found it mentioned under your video. I just LOVE your channel. My twin sister and I watch you all of the time. :-)
Ah thank you so much! Glad to hear you and your twin enjoy them
Really enjoyable to watch, nice and simple to follow, thanks :)
Thank you❤️
Thank you very much for this video. I learned a lot. I Love You so much and May God Bless You!
You ladies are amazing. What you put up with to look good. As a man I am mortified by the idea of having to starch my shorts. Just no. No no no no no. (That said, a nice starched shirt is rather nice if i need to wear one.) hmmm. Melchior’s robot pants are probably pretty uncomfortable though. But looking good ain’t easy. For anybody. Except the Greeks I suppose... “To be truly medieval one should have no body; to be truly modern one should have no soul; to be truly Greek one should have no clothes.” Thank you, Mr Wilde, for that...
😂😂😂
Your instructions are by far the best and easiest to understand. Makes it easy to accomplish the task at hand. Thank you.
Thank you! Glad I can be of any help ♥️
crunchy cotton is always fun! :-D they looked fabulous
Thank you🤗
What a fantastic and informative video, I enjoyed it so much! I know you mentioned that some costumers prefer to starch their petticoat while others do not. Do you know if it was similar in the 1830s, with some people preferring to starch their petticoats while others didn't?
Hmmm I actually don’t know! I probably should have researched that for this video though🙈 I’m really bad at those things
@@Leeam i don’t think you need to research that much. Your video is perfectly instructional, it does not have pretensions about being the historically accurate way to de anything. For that kind of historical accuracy I think you should not hesitate to send people on to other sources. Unless, of course you happen to know the answer. Thank you for your always cheerful videos.
Thank you for this great tutorial! I will reference this when I make my Jane Eyre costume soon
You’re welcome! And good luck💪🏼
That was very interesting! You answered a lot of questions I had about the process, thank you.
Thank you! Glad it was of help❤️
Thanks for sharing 🎉
Just what I needed! Thanks!
You’re so welcome🤗
So satisfying!
Thank you
I was trying to use uncooked spray starch and ironing dry just to stabilize slippery fabric before sewing but the iron keeps sticking and it takes forever so this might work a lot better...
It might help if you let the spray starch dry before ironing it(with lots of steam). So it won’t stick to your iron
@@Leeam I think I'm just going to make some of this cooked starch to soak my linen in and hang it to dry as best I can in my tiny damp apartment. What consistency would you say it should be when cooked? Or how much starch to water total? I don't need it super stiff, just stabilized and not sliding around while I cut and pin
There is a link in my description to the blog, I got my recipe from, there are also lesser stiff ratios listed there
I'm ALL about starching!!!
Me toooooo!❤️
Well, I certainly didn't know, you had to iron starched pieces 😅 I only ever used spraystarch on really small things so I have never experienced the wrangling of really stiff skirts. It sounds lovely!
😂😂 actually you also have to iron when you use spray on starch😉 but basically you can just do whatever and however you want to do it😊
As long as you don’t break the law off course🙈
@@Leeam I might have ironed those tiny crochet pieces, but it was so long ago, I can't even remember XD
O.O I need to make this !
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Would this recipe work for 1860s petticoats? That's what I am working on now. I like the crispness and shape of your petticoats so much.
Thank you for a wonderfully instructive video. Those petticoats definitely have body! What type of cording did you use? It is obviously very washable.
Thanks!!
Thanks il need this in making my niece cosplay costume 😊
Thank you for this tutorial! What is the reasoning behind mixing up two different pots with varying amounts of starch, and then combining them into one tub? Also, when you iron, do you use steam?
Because I don’t have a pot big enough to fit the whole batch😂😂 and yes I use steam. Otherwise it will be brutal on your arms. The steams makes the iron glide more easily.
@@Leeam Ahh, okay! I have a huge pot, so I think I could probably combine them in one. Now I just need an event to happen so I have a reason to starch my petticoats!
Should you steam iron, spritz iron or dry iron the starched petticoats for best effect, do you think? Thank you for such a succinct and clear video!
So beautiful love that skirt and that corded petticoat wow
Thank you❤️
I have massive petticoat and sewing bench envy!
Does the starch all come out the first time you wash it?
Lovely! Do you ever have Melchior help wring out the corded petticoat? :) Also are there any other things you regularly starch? Like shirts?
No he doesn’t help out with that. I often use spray starch for collars though!
Greetings and thanks for this! Have you ever starched fabric that isn't white? I'm wondering if there will be residue visible from the starch. Thanks for any thoughts on ths!
Can we starch tshirts as well? I bought a tahirt thinking it is a stiff fabric but after first wash it became flimsy.
Does the starch make the fabric dull? I want to try this on silk but would like it to still have the shine to it.
It should add some shine to it. But I would not recommend doing this on silk. It will ruin it.
Can you use potato starch instead of corn starch?
What is the name and where can I find a silicone tub you show in the video ??
I have now idea what the official name is, but try googling silicone tub? I bought mine at Action.
5:22 I thought you had a giant industrial sized iron xD
Does the starch fly everywhere when it is dried? Is it ok to wash starched fabric pieces in washing machine without any problem of clogging?
What kind of iron do you have?
It’s a Tefal express easy one

👍👍
It’s all fun and games until you want to starch a 100% polyester skirt and you don’t own a iron😂
