Care
Cotton or linen:
For colors that last and stay vibrant, hand or machine wash all products in cool water with a pH neutral detergent (any free and clear detergents are usually safe). Most natural dyes are pH sensitive, so be aware that vinegar or lemon juice may alter the color of your item.
Hang dry in the shade, or tumble dry on low. Iron or steam if needed.
Keep your naturally dyed item out of direct sunlight.
Because of the nature of natural dyes, every single item is unique, special and may have some variations from the plant pigments. May fade slightly over time.
