PRODUCT CARE

If you intend to use your basket to hold food, be sure to line it with a plastic liner, cloth napkin or paper towel to absorb any grease or oil that might be in the food.

Keep baskets away from heat sources like the kitchen stove, wood burning stove, radiators, fireplace and sunlight. The intense heat and UV rays of the sun can dry out the fibers of the basket making them brittle and cause dyed baskets to fade prematurely.

Body oils, lotion or grease can cause stains, mold, and mildew; therefore, it is best to handle your basket with clean hands.

To remove dust from your basket, use a feather duster or a clean, dry natural bristle paint brush. For deep cleaning, dampen a white 100% cotton cloth with cold water and blot gently. Let your basket air dry completely.
- Avoid soaking your basket in water as this can result in it swelling and can contribute to dyed baskets losing their color.
