BIRTHDAY CROWNS

When You First Receive Your Crown
Let it breathe for a bit by standing it up outside of the bag. If you have a steamer, give it a gentle refresh by holding your steamer 10-12" from the fabric and then let rest standing up.

Spot Treatment Remedy

1. Blot fresh stains with a clean, dry cloth to get as much off as you can. .

2. Use a gentle stain remover on a new cloth and blot gently until it lifts.

3. Do not immerse the crown in water.

HAND EMBROIDERED CLOTHING

Machine wash on a cold/gentle cycle*. Using a garment bag is highly recommended. Reshape and lay flat to dry. Iron the garment as the tag instructs and steer clear of the embroidery.

*Avoid putting the garment in a cycle with any velcro, zippers or attachments that might snag the embroidery thread.

TINY TOTES

Machine wash on a cold/gentle cycle. Garment bag strongly encouraged. Reshape and lay flat to dry.

TOOTH PILLOWS

1. Blot fresh stains with a clean/dry cloth.

2. Use a gentle stain remover on a new cloth and blot lightly until the stain lifts.

3. Do not immerse in water.

TEA TOWELS

Machine wash on a cold/gentle cycle. Garment bag is strongly recommended. Reshape and lay flat to dry. Warm iron the fabric around the embroidery, not on top of it.

BANNERS WITH WOOL FELT LETTERS

When You First Receive Your Banner
Unroll each punnet and hang the banner to allow it to breathe for a bit. If you have a steamer, give it a refresh by steaer 10-12" from the fabric or use an iron on low to smooth out any travel-creases while avoiding embroidery and the wool-felt letters.

Caring For Punnets:

  • These can be lightly steamed on either side. When steaming on the side with the letter, hold the steamer a bit further back from the wool felt.
  • You can iron normally on a warm setting on the back side. For the side with the letter, we recommend placing a soft cotton cloth over the letter before ironing. Press lightly and do not leave the iron on the punnets to steam.

Ribbon or Twill Banners:
Iron normally on warm or steam gently.

Cotton Rope Banners:
Lightly steam to remove any kinks.

To clean any stains, please spot clean with a gentle cleaner and do not submerge in water.
