WAYUU BAG CARE

CARING FOR YOUR WAYUU BAG

Handwashing is highly recommended, but if you want to wash your bag in you washing machine, please follow these steps.

 

STEP 1:

Spot treat any stubborn stains with just a little bit of soap. Rinse and repeat and they should help the stain wash right out in the washing machine.

 

STEP 2:

Protect the Wayuu bag from getting damaged, I place the Wayuu bag tassels and straps inside the bag before placing it in the wash to make sure it will stay in perfect condition.

I also like to pull the base of the bag down and fold it in half as I feel it helps get a better wash in the machine.

 

STEP 3:

Wash the Wayuu bag on its own and put it on the quickest cycle. Use a gentle soap and cold water.

If you don’t have a short cycle on your machine, please hand wash your Wayuu bag as tassels and drawstrings get easily get damaged.

 

STEP 4:

Hang your Wayuu bag to dry and you are done!
