Care Instructions for the Gauze Table Runner and Napkin Set:

Handwash or Machine Wash on Gentle Cycle
 
  • Start by filling a basin or your washing machine with warm water. You can either choose to hand wash the gauze napkins individually or place them in a mesh laundry bag if you're using the washing machine. Using a mild detergent, gently agitate the water to create a soapy solution.
  • To prevent your gauze napkins and runners from getting tangled or damaged, it's crucial to wash them separately or with similar lightweight fabrics. Avoid washing them with heavy items like jeans or towels, which could cause friction and snag the delicate gauze material.
  • After washing, ensure that you rinse the napkins thoroughly to remove any detergent residue. You can do this by either gently rinsing them under running water or running a rinse cycle in the washing machine.

Hang to Dry  
  • When it comes to drying gauze napkins, avoid using a tumble dryer, as the heat and agitation can cause them to shrink or become damaged. Instead, lay them flat on a clean, dry towel or hang them on a clothesline to air dry. 

 Iron 
  • After washing and drying, you'll likely notice that your gauze runner and napkins may have some wrinkles. To achieve that crisp, polished look, it's time to break out the iron. Set your iron to a low to medium heat setting while they are slightly damp. If your runner set is completely dry, lightly mist the fabric with water. This will help to relax the fibers and make it easier to remove wrinkles. This helps retain the soft, crinkled texture of gauze cotton.
  • Using a slow and gentle motion, run the iron over the fabric. Be sure to work in sections, and avoid pressing down too hard or staying in one spot for too long to prevent overheating and damaging the delicate gauze.
  • After washing, drying, and ironing your gauze runner and napkins, take a close look at the raw edges. The raw hand-frayed edges can sometimes develop loose threads, carefully trim any stray threads along the raw edges of the runner and napkins. Take your time and work slowly to avoid accidentally cutting the fabric.
  • Store once you've ironed the gauze runner and napkins to your satisfaction, and allow them to cool down for a few minutes. Then, you can choose to hang them or neatly fold them for storage until your next use.

Stain Removal Tips

Do Not Bleach
  • Do not bleach the napkins because bleach will damage the material.

Treat Stain Before Wash
  • Act Quickly: The longer a stain sits, the more challenging it can be to remove. Treat your napkins or runners the same day as the stain.
  • Blot the Stain: Spilled wine on your runner? Place a clean, white cloth or paper towel under the stained area to prevent the stain from spreading. Gently blot the stain to absorb excess liquid or residue. Do not rub vigorously, as it may push the stain deeper into the fabric.
  • Prepare a Stain-Removal Solution: In a small bowl, mix a mild liquid detergent or a specialized fabric stain remover with cold water. Ensure that the detergent or stain remover is suitable for delicate fabrics.
  • Let It Sit: Allow the stain-removal solution to sit on the stain for a few minutes or overnight if you have the time. This gives it time to penetrate and break down the stain.
  • Rinse with Cold Water: Rinse the stained area thoroughly with cold water to remove the detergent or stain remover. Gently blot the area with a clean cloth to remove excess moisture.
  • Check for Residue: After rinsing, inspect the stained area to ensure the stain is completely gone. If any residue remains, repeat the stain-treatment process until the stain is no longer visible.
