They're both cute. Cool idea(s) :-) Maybe try some spraypaint? I don't know...or support the ends in a manner so you can stretch and eliminate the crese. Or stick a stick over the crease so it is covered up. I have no idea...I am not even sure what you did there...and I am not expert at this kind of thing. I have no idea...I am no expert...I am sorry...:-) -Peace/Jeff
