IMPORTANT
CARE & CLEAN
Cotton fiber comes from a cotton plant, which makes it a 100% natural material. Cotton is soft and pleasant to touch, yet it is very durable. To ensure your new macramé art lives a long a happy life, please follow these instructions on proper care and maintenance.
Hanging your Macrame
-
Cotton fiber macrame pieces are meant to be used indoors. If you plan on hanging your art outdoors, ensure you protect it from the sun and water exposure.
-
Keep the fibers away from an open flame (candles, fireplaces)
Cleaning Macrame
Dust/dirt accumulation
-
Spot clean with white, damp cloth using a mild detergent
-
Always use cold water to prevent shrinkage
-
Avoid any detergents with bleach
-
To dry, hang in a well ventilated area
Spilled coffee/wine
-
Clean while the stain is fresh
-
Run your item under the cold tap through the back of the stain for 3-5 minutes, and then rub the stain gently
-
Use mild detergent as needed
Look out for pests
Like any other natural fiber (for example, wool or silk) cotton can become a food source for various pests. To prevent this from happening, make sure to remove any dust at least once a month from your macrame by using a white damp cloth and duster.
Ironing and Steaming Macrame
You can iron or use a steamer on your macrame piece to remove any wrinkles caused by washing or shipping.
Brushing Fringes
Take care with the fringes. I recommend using a pet brush with the tiny metal teeth or a metal comb. Gently does it!
