At Petals and Threads, every piece you wear carries nature’s gentle touch — hand-dyed with sacred petals and crafted with care. To keep these colors fresh and beautiful for years to come, a little mindful care goes a long way.
1) Wash Gently
Natural dyes love gentle treatment.
-
Hand wash separately in cold water for best results.
-
Use a mild, natural detergent — avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
-
Don’t soak for too long; a quick dip and swirl is enough.
2) Dry with Care
Sunlight can fade natural dyes over time.
-
Dry in the shade, not under direct sun.
-
Avoid wringing too hard — gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat or hang to drip dry.
3) Iron with Love
Natural fabrics love a little steam.
-
Iron while slightly damp on a low to medium setting.
-
For delicate fabrics like silk, place a cotton cloth over the garment to protect the dye.
4) Store Thoughtfully
Keep your flower-dyed clothes safe when you’re not wearing them.
-
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
-
Use muslin or cotton bags instead of plastic to let the fabric breathe.
5) Embrace the Aging
Natural dyes age gracefully — a slight softening of color over time is part of their charm. With mindful care, your clothes will carry their stories for years, becoming softer and more beautiful with every wear.
6) When in Doubt
Got a tough stain? Prefer professional cleaning? Choose a dry cleaner familiar with natural dyes and delicate fabrics — it’s worth the extra care.
