Coaster Care Instructions

To keep your handmade punch needle coaster looking its best:

  1. Dampen a soft cloth with water and add a small drop of mild dish soap, shampoo, or wool wash.
  2. Gently dab the surface to remove dirt or stains. Avoid scrubbing, as this may damage the fibers.
  3. Wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
  4. Allow the coaster to air dry completely before using it again.

Please Note:

  • Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Do not soak the coaster.
  • Handle gently to help preserve its handmade quality.

Bandana Care Instructions

Hand Washing — Our Favorite Method

For the longest-lasting results, we recommend hand washing.

  1. Fill a sink or basin with cold water and add a small amount of mild detergent.
  2. Gently swish the water to mix.
  3. Place the bandana in the water and gently move it around. Avoid scrubbing, twisting, or wringing.
  4. Let it soak for a few minutes.
  5. Rinse thoroughly with cold water until all detergent is removed.
  6. Gently press out excess water between two clean, dry towels.
  7. Reshape the bandana while damp and lay flat to air dry. Avoid hanging while wet, as this may stretch the fabric.
  8. Once completely dry, iron the fabric on low to medium heat if needed.

For Scrunch & Wag Bandanas: Avoid ironing the scrunchie band. Heat can damage the elastic inside.

Machine Washing — For Busy Pup Parents 

Short on time? Your bandana can also be machine washed.

  1. Place the bandana in a mesh laundry bag to help protect it from snagging.
  2. Machine wash in cold water on the gentle or delicate cycle.
  3. Use a mild detergent and wash with similar colors.
  4. Remove promptly when the cycle is finished.
  5. Gently press out excess water between two clean, dry towels.
  6. Reshape while damp and lay flat to air dry.
  7. Once completely dry, iron the fabric on low to medium heat if needed.

For Scrunch & Wag Bandanas: Do not iron the scrunchie band.

A Little Extra TLC 

  • No bleach or harsh chemicals — they can damage the fabric and fade those fun colors.
  • Keep bandanas away from zippers, hooks, Velcro, or other items that could snag the fabric.
  • Skip the dryer. High heat may cause shrinking or affect the bandana’s shape.
  • Always make sure the bandana is completely dry before your pup wears it again.
