Crepe de chine is very difficult to print and hand paint dye onto. Why are we telling you this? Because it worked really well this time. It's always a gamble but the fabric is so yummy we can't resist taking the chance. When it works, it really really works. Here's a great new example of great works. Bobwhite quails in flight, pine needles and cones, acorns, too. About 12" x 60" 100% crepe de Chine silk. Hand-dyed, hand-printed, hand-painted from original drawings, of course.
- Silk is one of the strongest fibers known. Just think: they used if for hundreds of years as fly line! It's at its weakest when wet, however, so hand washing is the wisest method of cleaning it. If machine laundering (recommended for boxer shorts and lingerie only), use a garment bag. If your scarf has beaded corners or is printed with any metalic paint or foil (as in the case of many of our insect imagery), DO NOT DRY CLEAN the item, as the chemicals take the shine out of any metalic material.
- We recommend cool or warm water, mild soap (Ivory flakes or just some bar soap swished in the basin water), and a fast soak. Rinse, blot dry, and iron while still damp, if you can. Try not to iron the beads -- they may crack.
- You may always contact us if you have special circumstances or other questions.
