If it was folded for a while, the tapestry may need to be ironed, to remove any wrinkles or creases, before hanging it. We strongly suggest that you test an area on the back of the tapestry first and make sure to do so at the lowest temperature setting on the iron. If the wrinkles still fail to come out in back, place a dye free towel or sheet over the front and iron. Gradually increase the setting on the iron if the wrinkles are slow to remove. Take your time and do this right. Last thing you want is to discolor or burn the tapestry.
