Care & Cleaning
General Linen cleaning principles apply. All linens are fully washable, but with care and attention to the end use. Frequent washing of end product means you should prewash the fabric before make up. Avoid the dryer, linen will shrink when dried under too much heat. Spot washing should be carried out carefully using very diluted soapy water making sure to rinse out as much soap as possible. Linen can be hung to dry and can also be dried in the dryer but gently. Regular maintenance helps, curtains and sofas should be vaccuumed from time to time, cushions laundered and bedding treated as all bedding should; washed regularly with half the soap and double the water, so make sure you run an extra rinse cycle. Linen loves water but do treat it with love and care.
