Caring For Your Printed Product
To keep your beautiful printed piece looking vibrant and fresh for as long as possible, please follow these simple care instructions:
Water:
Wash in cold or lukewarm water, preferably below 30 - 40 degrees Celsius. Hot water can affect the print and cause colours to fade.
Detergent:
Use a mild, pH-neutral liquid detergent. Avoid bleach, strong stain removers, enzymes and harsh washing powders.
Washing:
Turn the item inside out before washing. Use a gentle hand wash or a delicate machine cycle with a low spin speed.
First few washes:
Dark or strongly coloured prints should be washed separately for the first 2-3 washes, as some excess surface colour may be released.
No wringing:
Please don't twist or wring the fabric. Gently squeeze out excess water or press it between clean towels.
Drying:
Drip dry or hang on the line in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause both the print and natural fabric to fade. Do not tumble dry.
Ironing:
Iron the item on the reverse, unprinted side, using the correct temperature for the natural fabric.
With a little extra care, your Adèle Geldenhuys Art piece can be enjoyed for years to come.
