Washing Your CozyHugz4u Blanket
When it comes to washing your CozyHugz4u blanket, we recommend a gentle approach to ensure its longevity. The best way to wash your blanket is in cold water at 20° using a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fibers. Gentle wash on a delicate machine cycle and always use a laundry bag to protect the blanket. Its recommended if your blanket has multiple dark and light colours in it's design to use a colour catcher when washing to avoid colours from bleeding.
Tip: Add 1/4 cup of white vinager to the rinse cycle to keep your CozyHugz4u blankets softness.
After washing, reshape the blanket while it's still damp and lay it flat to dry on a clean surface, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Storing Your Blanket
Proper storage of your CozyHugz4u blanket is crucial to maintain its appearance and softness. When not in use, store your blanket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. It is advisable to fold your blanket neatly rather than hanging it, as this helps to maintain its shape and prevents any stretching. To protect it from dust and pests, consider placing it in a breathable cotton bag or a dedicated storage box. If you live in a humid climate, using silica gel packets or cedar blocks in your storage area can help absorb excess moisture, keeping your blanket in pristine condition. Regularly checking on your blanket during storage is also recommended to ensure no unwanted pests have made their way in.
Dealing with Stains
Accidents happen, and if your CozyHugz4u blanket gets stained, it’s important to act quickly to prevent permanent damage. For small stains, you can opt for spot cleaning by gently blotting the area with a clean cloth and cold water. If necessary, a mild soap can be applied but be sure to rinse thoroughly.
