Step 5:
Then add hot/warm water to your container. The water should be high enough in the bowl so that the entire lace sun catcher will be submerged.
Step 6:
Place your lace design inside the container. Let the design soak for about 10-15 minutes. This will remove the Solvy from the design.
Step 7:
Remove the design from the water and blot dry with the paper towel. Let it dry.

Step 8:
Iron the lace sun catcher if desired, making sure to place a thin cloth over the lace so it does not get scorched by the iron. Now your lace sun catcher is completed and ready to hang your window.
