We've all had that moment when you have a nice smooth sheet with maybe a drawing of a certificate or just an essay you want to look good- when all of a sudden something happens to crease the paper! Follow these steps to revive your perfect paper and keep it from future harm.

Steps

  1. Find a book that is slightly larger than the paper you want to smooth. Make sure that it isn't a smaller book because you will get a rough line down the side that doesn't fit in.
  2. Place the paper at the very back of the book. Make sure all the paper is inside a book and if it doesn't quite fit you may have to find another book.
  3. Put the book containing the paper under weight. This could be sitting on it, under more books or even under a wardrobe or bed. This will add pressure and cause the paper to straighten.
  4. Enjoy your smooth paper!
