Fabric Care Guide
Proper care ensures your handcrafted accessories last for years. Follow these guidelines to maintain their beauty.
Essential Care Tips
Simple practices to keep your qorlyraxghit accessories in excellent condition.
Spot Cleaning
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean small spots. Avoid saturating the fabric and allow to air dry completely.
Sun Protection
Prolonged sun exposure can fade colors. Store your accessories away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Air Drying
If your item gets wet, let it air dry naturally. Avoid using heat sources like hair dryers or radiators.
Proper Storage
Store in a cool, dry place. Use a dust bag or cotton pillowcase to protect from dust and scratches.
Care by Material
Different fabrics require different approaches. Find care instructions for your specific material.
Waxed Canvas
Wipe with a damp cloth. Re-wax annually to maintain water resistance. Avoid machine washing.
Cotton Canvas
Hand wash in cold water with mild detergent. Reshape while damp and air dry flat.
Linen
Spot clean or hand wash gently. Iron on low heat while slightly damp if needed.
Metal Care
Keep zippers, clasps, and buckles working smoothly with proper maintenance.
Cleaning Metal
Wipe brass and metal hardware with a soft dry cloth. For stubborn tarnish, use a specialized metal cleaner.
Zipper Maintenance
Apply a small amount of beeswax or zipper lubricant if zippers become stiff or difficult to use.
