How to Flatten Wrinkled Paper

Spray Bottle Method

• 1

  Place the paper on a flat, hard surface and smooth it out with your hands.

• 2

  Fill a spray bottle with water. Turn the nozzle to its widest setting to achieve a fine spray.

• 3

  Lightly mist the paper. Be careful that you don't soak it, or the ink may run.

• 4

  Place the paper between two heavy books until it is dry.

Steam Method

• 5

  Set the paper someplace in the bathroom where it will not get wet. Turn on the hot water in the shower and let the room fill up with steam.

• 6

  Allow the paper to sit in the steamy room for several minutes.

• 7

  Remove the paper from the bathroom and place it between two books until is completely dry.

Ironing Method

• 8

  Place the paper on an ironing board, mat or hard surface. Cover it with a thin cloth.

• 9

  Heat the iron on its lowest setting.

• 10

  Iron the paper through the cloth until it is wrinkle-free. Avoid any areas where there is tape or plastic. The iron can melt these into the paper.
