How to deform Moses baskets?
Moses baskets made of natural materials can sometimes get deformed during shipping or storage. Fortunately, the process of restoring them to their original shape is simple and quick. Here's how to do it step by step:
1. **Preparing the Basket**:
- Before starting the process, make sure the basket is empty and free of any pillows, mattresses or other accessories.
2. **Pouring Water on the Basket**:
- Place the Moses basket in the shower and pour water over it. Make sure the entire surface of the basket is well soaked. The water will help soften the fibers of the natural material from which the basket is made.
3. **Removing the Basket**:
- After soaking the basket in water, leave it for about 10 minutes. This will allow the material to soften enough to be easily reshaped.
4. **Deforming the Basket**:
- After 10 minutes, gently begin to shape the basket into the desired shape. You can lightly bend and press the walls of the basket to achieve the perfect look.
5. **Drying the Basket**:
- Once you have shaped the basket, leave it to dry. This process should take about 5 hours. Make sure the basket is placed in a dry and well-ventilated place to ensure even drying.
With these simple steps, your Moses basket will look brand new, ready to use and enjoy its functionality and aesthetics.
