ABSTRACT:
A method of renewing decorative tassels after they have become unsightly from wearing of an item to which they are attached, particularly shoes wherein the one or more tassels is made up of strands of moisture-absorbent leather or synthetic leather extending integrally side-by-side from a stem base attached to the shoe. The method comprises encasing the tassel, as straightened and rearranged, in a tube length of heat-shrink material; applying moisture to the strands of the tassel; heating the heat-shrink tube along its length to shrink it tightly against the tassel as straightened and rearranged, so as to press it into renewed condition; and removing the shrunken tube from the renewed tassel substantially without disturbing the straightened and rearranged strands thereof.
