Care Instructions for Your Handmade Treasures

Thank you for choosing one of our handmade creations! Each piece is crafted with love and care, and with a little attention, you can keep it looking its best for years to come. Here’s a simple guide to ensure your treasure remains a cherished item. 

General Care Tips

  • Keep it clean: Try to spot-clean any small marks as soon as they appear.
  • Handle with care: Our dolls and accessories are for gentle play and display. Avoid rough handling, as this can damage the yarn fibres.
  • Protect from sun: To prevent the colours from fading, keep your handmade item out of direct, prolonged sunlight.

Cleaning Your Item

For best results, we always recommend hand washing, especially for dolls with delicate features.

  • Hand Washing: Fill a basin with cold water and a small amount of mild, gentle soap. Submerge the item and gently squeeze it to clean. Do not rub or wring it.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly under cold water until all soap is gone.
  • Drying: Gently squeeze out any excess water (do not twist or wring). Reshape your item and lay it flat on a clean towel to air dry.

Important Notes

Machine Washing: This is not recommended for our delicate dolls with safety eyes or intricate details. However, simple knitted items or larger home products may be machine washed on a cold, gentle cycle inside a laundry bag. Always lay flat to dry. Remember to always check your product description for care instructions or any care card that may be included.

  • Dolls with Accessories: Any delicate attachments like bows, veils, or tiny flowers should be spot-cleaned or removed before washing if possible.
  • What to Avoid: Please do not bleach, iron, or tumble dry your handmade items, as this will damage the yarn and the shape of the product.


Please be aware that we cannot be held accountable for any damage to your handmade item that results from improper use or care, including not following the specific care instructions provided. This type of damage is not covered under our return or refund policy. We strongly advise that you read our full Terms & Conditions for full details.
