🧺 Woven Bag Care Guide: Keep It Looking New
Woven straw bags are cherished for their natural beauty and artisanal craftsmanship. Proper care ensures these eco-friendly accessories remain stylish and functional for years.
1. Understanding Your Woven Bag
- Common materials include straw, raffia, and seagrass, each offering unique textures and eco-friendly properties. Handwoven construction requires gentle care to maintain integrity.
2. Daily Maintenance Tips
- Dust regularly with a soft-bristle brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment.
- Avoid overloading to prevent distortion.
- Handle with care, using designated handles or straps.
3. Cleaning Your Woven Bag
- For minor stains, gently dab with a cloth dampened with mild soap solution.
- Mix a few drops of dishwashing detergent in warm water; use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub soiled areas, then wipe with a clean damp cloth.
- Allow the bag to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
4. Storing Your Woven Bag
- Stuff the bag with tissue paper or a soft cloth to help retain its form.
- Store in a breathable cotton dust bag or pillowcase to shield from dust and light.
- Keep in a cool, dry place, avoiding high humidity or extreme temperatures
5. Preventing Common Issues
- Avoid exposing the bag to rain or damp conditions; if wet, blot gently and air dry promptly.
- Place a small container of baking soda inside the bag for 24 hours to absorb unwanted smells.
- Keep away from harsh chemicals, perfumes, and prolonged sunlight to prevent discoloration and degradation.
6. Repair and Longevity
