Care Guide

I make each item with the intention that they will be cherished for years to come as a meaningful keepsake or heirloom, and so I wanted to give some info on how to care for them. With care, these natural fabrics will age gracefully and stay special for many years. Please contact me if you have any more questions.

Linen items:

- Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle in cool to warm water with mild detergent.

- Linen loves to be air-dried. Lay flat or hang, and smooth out with your hands while damp to reduce wrinkles.

- If ironing, use medium to hot heat with steam while the fabric is still slightly damp.

- Linen softens beautifully with each wash

Cotton voile items:

- Hand wash gently in cool to warm water with a mild detergent.

- Avoid wringing — instead, roll in a towel to remove excess water and lay flat or hang to dry.

- If ironing, use a medium heat setting while slightly damp, or use steam to smooth out creases.

- Keep out of strong sunlight for long periods, as it can fade colour..

Silk items:

- Best cared for with a gentle hand wash in lukewarm water using a mild detergent.

- Rinse well, then roll in a towel to absorb extra water. Lay flat to dry.

- Always iron on the silk setting, without steam, once fully dry.

- Avoid bleach, wringing, or soaking in very hot water, and keep silk out of strong sunlight

1.  Use a clean white cloth or paper towel to gently blot the area and absorb as much of the stain as you can.

2. Mix a couple of tablespoons of lukewarm water with the same amount of either white vinegar or lemon juice. Using a clean white cloth, lightly dab the stain with this solution. Be careful not to rub too vigorously, as this can damage the delicate silk fibres.

3. Wash the piece as you normally would, following the silk care instructions.

If the stain lingers, a dry cleaner is the safest option.
