Simple washing, drying, and storage tips to preserve the beauty and longevity of your favorite handloom products.
Handloom Care Guide

Handloom products are crafted with care and deserve gentle maintenance to preserve their beauty, softness, and durability. By following a few simple care practices, you can enjoy your favorite sarees, dress materials, bedsheets, and fabrics for years to come.

Washing Tips

• Wash separately for the first few washes, as natural dyes may release a small amount of color.
• Use cold or lukewarm water with a mild detergent.
• Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or strong stain removers that can damage the fibers.
• Gently hand wash whenever possible. If using a washing machine, select a delicate cycle and place the fabric in a laundry bag.

Drying Tips

• Dry in the shade to maintain the fabric’s original color and texture.
• Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods, as it may cause fading.
• Do not wring the fabric excessively. Gently squeeze out excess water and let it air dry naturally.

Ironing Tips

• Iron on a medium heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp.
• For delicate weaves and embroidered fabrics, iron from the reverse side or place a cotton cloth over the fabric before ironing.

Storage Tips

• Store handloom products in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
• Fold sarees and fabrics neatly, and refold them occasionally to prevent permanent creases.
• Use breathable cotton or muslin bags instead of plastic covers for long-term storage.
• Keep garments away from direct sunlight and humidity to protect their natural colors and fibers.

Extra Care

• Air your handloom products occasionally to keep them fresh.
• Avoid hanging heavy sarees or fabrics for long periods, as this may stretch the weave.
• Keep away from sharp objects and rough surfaces that may snag delicate threads.

With proper care, your handloom treasures will retain their elegance, vibrant colors, and exceptional craftsmanship, allowing you to enjoy their timeless beauty for many years.
