{"product_id":"aleenes-fabric-stiffener","title":"Fabric Stiffener","description":"\u003cp\u003eFabric projects need rigidity without brittleness, that delicate balance between structure and workability. Aleene's Fabric Stiffener delivers precisely that, using synthetic formulation that outperforms traditional starch or sugar-water methods. The formula penetrates fibers evenly, creating uniform stiffness across natural cottons, linens, and synthetic blends alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply it straight from the bottle for maximum rigidity in sculptural fabric forms, or dilute with water for lighter applications where you need shape retention without cardboard-stiff results. The synthetic composition resists the yellowing and insect attraction that plague sugar-based stiffeners, while maintaining flexibility that won't crack when your three-dimensional fabric piece gets handled or stored. Projects dry clear and maintain their form through regular handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFabric artists working with doilies, bows, costume elements, and dimensional textile sculptures rely on this stiffener for predictable results. The formula works whether you're dipping entire pieces or brush-applying to specific areas. Your stiffened fabric holds its shape reliably while the synthetic formulation ensures longevity that traditional household stiffeners simply can't match.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aleene's","offers":[{"title":"8 oz. bottle","offer_id":48111574024421,"sku":"76492","price":4.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s76492.jpg?v=1769735275","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/aleenes-fabric-stiffener","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
