White linen placemat with folded edge

Individual linen products should be washed with similar colors. It is a good idea to wash linen separately and not combine it with other fabrics. We wash at temperatures up to 40°C. Higher temperatures may cause additional shrinkage. At the same time, the linen from which we sew our linen products is stonewashed linen, which has been subjected to a process of repeated washing, thus shrinking and softening. The shrinkage of stonewashed linen is only about 3-5%. Use a delicate washing cycle and spin at low speed to avoid severe fiber damage and strong creases. Before washing, button up bedding and wash it inside out.

Use gentle detergents for washing. Absolutely do not use bleach or other products containing chlorine. Such agents weaken the fibers and destroy them, which ultimately negatively affects their durability. We also do not chemically clean linen products. For stains that may happen to you, try traditional home remedies, i.e. baking soda, salt, corn starch, gray soap, or hydrogen peroxide.

After washing, shake the product well and hang it to dry. It is best to dry linen outdoors, where there is free air circulation. Do not expose laundry directly to the sun, this may cause discoloration on the folds of the fabric in the dryer. Only white linen can be exposed directly to the sun, what's more, the sun's rays can whiten white linen and even remove stubborn stains. We do not recommend using a tumble dryer so as not to weaken the linen fibers. When necessary, use a short, gentle program with the lowest temperature.

Linen is synonymous with nature, it does not require ironing, especially the stonewashed type, which wavers more than creases, and that is its natural beauty. And if you decide to do so, iron the products while they are still damp or use steam and high temperature up to 200°C.
