What pressing tools should I have?

Clapper

Use a clapper to flatten seams after pressing. A clapper can reduce bulk and make fabric lay flat. Steam press the seam or area. Press the clapper over the area to seal in the heat and moisture. After about a minute, the fabric or seam will lay perfectly flat.
