Cotton Posy Clothes Care

A little extra care goes a long way in keeping your Cotton Posy clothing looking its best. Always refer to each outfit's specific sewn-in care label, but here are few general handmade clothing care tips.

Think Cool and Calm

  • Wash in cold water. 
  • Hand-wash or use the hand-wash or delicate cycle.
  • Use a mild detergent.
  • Lay flat or hang to dry.

Get Rid of Wrinkles

  • If tumbling dry, choose a low heat setting.
  • Iron on medium heat. 
  • Do not iron decorations.
  • Handheld steamers work great for difficult-to-iron designs.

Prevent Color Bleed

  • For outfits with prone-to-bleed colors such as red, soak items in a mixture of 3 parts white vinegar to 1 part cold water for four hours to set the colors before washing.
  • Color catcher sheets, such as Shout ColorCatcher, lock up loose dyes in wash water and prevent dye transfer like a charm.
