Love Me and Care for Me – Beading

Fran and Jane have compiled a list of a few tips for keeping your clothes lovely and cared for….

Silk Beaded Dresses

When washing our silk beaded garnments we suggest that you do not in fact dry clean these as the beads sometimes melt if the machine is too hot!! Instead we recommend that you do as follows:

  1. Hand wash in luke warm water (this means water that you would put a baby in!)
  2. Add in a small amount of woolite or silk detergent (Marks and Spencers do a very gentle detergent that works well)
  3. Rinse in cool water
  4. Place inside out in a pillow case and put in a washing machine on spin for NO LONGER than 30 seconds
  5. Hang to dry, and when the dress is still slightly damp, use a cool iron to remove the creases

TIP: For dark colours add a small fist full of salt into the washing basin and again when rinsing it, this helps to retain the colour of the dress.

If there are no beads on the dress and it sates to dry clean it then please DRY CLEAN it ONLY

Care Instructions for Beading

Knitware Beading

If the knitware you have bought is beaded we recommend that you hand wash this in the same way as the silk garnments above. However do not place in a pillow case to spin dry, to dry the knit lay it out flat and reshape it.

We hope you find the above helpful and that you enjoy wearing your garments as much as we did making them. They were made with love, care and attention and they expect this to carry on for the rest of their lives!!!

Lots of love,

The Fran and Jane team xxXXxx
