Our embroidery pieces are intricate designs that are made with a lot of thought and time. Every roll of fabric can take us up to a full week to just embroider on. We hope they will be part of your everyday for a long time. Proper care is essential to maintain and keep your piece looking at its best. Here are some tips and tricks to help you best care for them.
Each material has specific care requirements, so always take time to flip over to the garment’s care label underneath each piece for guidance. You’ll also find a little poem written by us that shares the sentiments behind each collection. We hope they inspire you, even in the littlest ways.
