Care Guide

Each of our handmade fabric items is crafted with care using quality materials. To keep your pieces looking their best and to extend their lifespan, we recommend the following care practices:

Washing Instructions

• Gentle is Better: For the longest life, we recommend hand washing in cold water using a mild, pH-neutral detergent.

• Machine Washing: If you choose to use a washing machine, please select the "Delicate" or "Gentle" cycle with cold water.

• Protect Your Items: Turn garments or items inside out before washing to protect the outer fabric and any prints or embellishments. If the item has buttons, zippers, or delicate trim, placing it in a mesh laundry bag is a great way to prevent snagging.

• Wash Like Colors: Always wash with similar colors to prevent potential dye transfer.

Drying Instructions

• Avoid High Heat: Tumble drying, especially on high heat, can cause fabric to shrink, fade, or wear out prematurely.

• Air Dry: We strongly recommend laying your items flat to dry on a clean towel or hanging them to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.

• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Keep items out of direct, prolonged sunlight while drying, as this can cause colors to fade over time.

Ironing & Storage

• Low Heat: If your item needs ironing, use a low heat setting. It is often helpful to place a thin pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent shine or accidental damage.

• Storage: Store your items in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping them in direct sunlight for long periods, as this can weaken fibers and fade vibrant colors.
