This extra care in washing your handmade stuff will make sure that you can enjoy them for a long time, and that the time and money spent on them wasn’t for nothing! A well-made, well-cared-for handmade item can last for many, many years.
SOAP
Use a liquid detergent that is gentle.
WATER TEMPERATURE
Cool water.
HAND or MACHINE WASH?
Spot cleaning is strongly recommended. Apply the fabric spot remover to any visible spots or stains. Use cold water and mild detergent to spot clean your handmade item. Blot, instead of scrub the stain so as not to spread it. If there is a large amount of grime, you may hand wash it in a sink of cold water. You may use a small piece of fabric to rub out stubborn stains.
DRY CAREFULLY
Don't throw this into the clothing dryer. Air dry is recommended.If you want your handmade item to look as good as new bought, you can iron it with LOW temperature when it is completely dry.
