Care and washing tips for velvet.

To take care of your velvet creations, it is important to follow the specific manufacturer's instructions regarding care and washing. In general, it is recommended to wash velvet by hand or in a machine at a low temperature, using a mild detergent. Avoid machine drying and prefer air drying or low-temperature ironing.

When hand washing, fill a sink or container with lukewarm water and add a little mild detergent. Gently agitate the fabric in the water, avoiding vigorous rubbing. Rinse thoroughly with clean water until all soap is completely removed. Avoid twisting or wringing the velvet, as this could damage its delicate texture. To remove excess water, you can gently press the fabric between clean towels and then let it dry flat.

If you prefer to use a washing machine, select a delicate cycle or set it specifically for delicate fabrics. Use a laundry bag to protect the velvet from excessive rubbing with other clothes. Also, use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers of the velvet. Once the cycle is finished, immediately remove the fabric from the machine to avoid wrinkles and let it air dry.

Regarding ironing, use a low to medium temperature iron and turn the fabric inside out, placing a thin cloth between the iron and the velvet to avoid flattening or burning it. Avoid rubbing the velvet with the iron, but rather use a gentle pressing motion to remove wrinkles.
