Amalfi Straw Bag Collection

Before cleaning:

• Make sure to remove all items from your handbag.
• Once empty, turn your handbag upside-down and shake it out to let any crumbs/debris fall out.

Cleaning:

• Start by inspecting the weaving and lining. 
• Do you have a Straw Bag? Be sure to check if there are any crumbs/debris wedged in between the straw. If so, use a dry toothbrush and gently brush any crumbs away. You can use a bit of cold water on the brush, when needed.
• Once you have inspected the weaving and lining, it’s time to clean the surface of your bag and remove any dirt. 
• Lightly moisten a clean cotton cloth with cold water.
• Wipe your handbag in a soft circular motion starting from the top of the bag to the bottom. Use a couple of drops mild detergent mixed with water if needed. Wipe gently and do not rub. 
• Remember for Straw Bags: Do not soak the straw as that will possibly cause a color change.
• Treat the leather with a damp clean cloth and again, use care not to rub away the finish.
• Use a dry cotton cloth and gently wipe the water/dirt away.

Storing:

• If you are storing your handbag in the closet or in a box, put them in a dust bag. This will protect your bag from dust and mold.
• Let your handbag out of storage every 2-3 months to let them breathe.
• Store the handbag with paper stuffed inside to hold its shape and lay it on its side in the dust bag.

Tips:

• When you use your bag, make sure to put any liquids or powders (like makeup) in a separate small pouch inside, to avoid any spills and increase the longevity of your bag.
