Is the boho clipped duvet set with pillow shamers easy to care for? Can it be machine washed?

The fabric characteristics of Boho clipped duvet set with pillow shames affect the care method
Although the Bohemian style duvet set has a distinctive style, it does not necessarily use a specific material. Common fabrics include pure cotton, cotton and linen blends, polyester fiber or polyester-cotton blends, etc. Among them, pure cotton fabrics feel soft and breathable, but are more prone to wrinkles; cotton and linen materials tend to be naturally rough, but may be slightly stiff; polyester or polyester-cotton is more stable in terms of durability and easy care.
Because the style itself emphasizes colorful and rich patterns, many Boho clipped duvet set with pillow shames use active printing and dyeing or paint printing and dyeing technology. Active printing and dyeing is safer, more environmentally friendly, and has higher color fastness, but it may also fade slightly when frequently washed with water; paint printing needs to pay more attention to the water temperature and detergent selection when machine washing. Whether it is easy to care for depends not only on whether the pattern is complex, but also on the washability and color fastness of the material itself.

Whether a duvet cover can be machine washed depends on the filling and structure
“Duvet sets” usually include removable duvet covers and pillowcases, and the down filling usually refers to the quilt core. If the duvet cover and pillowcase are separate fabric products (i.e. without filling), they can usually be machine washed as long as the water temperature and program are set properly.
However, if it is a non-detachable one-piece duvet or a filled pillowcase, it is necessary to determine whether it is suitable for machine washing based on the type and thickness of the filled down. Natural down itself is hygroscopic and light, but when exposed to high temperatures or frequent squeezing, it may clump, lose its fluffiness, and even have odors. Therefore, it is not recommended to frequently machine wash one-piece products with fillings, but dry cleaning or professional down care should be adopted.

Precautions for machine washing Boho clipped duvet set with pillow shames
If the product is determined to be a detachable quilt cover + pillowcase combination, and the material allows machine washing, the following aspects should still be noted during the operation:
1. Choose the appropriate washing mode
It is recommended to use the "gentle wash" or "hand wash" mode, and avoid high-speed spin drying to prevent fabric deformation or pattern damage.
2. Control the water temperature
The water temperature should not exceed 30℃. High temperature may affect the stability of the printed and dyed pattern, causing slight fading or discoloration.
3. Choose a neutral detergent
Avoid using laundry detergent containing bleaching ingredients or strong alkaline detergents to protect the color and fabric fibers.
4. Avoid mixing with dark and light colored clothes
Colorful patterns are easy to contaminate other clothes due to slight fading of dyes. It is recommended to wash them separately or wash them in categories.
5. Dry immediately after washing
After washing, it should be dried quickly to avoid long-term soaking or damp stacking to prevent mold and odor.

Is dry cleaning or hand washing more suitable for long-term care
For some Bohemian style products with handmade decorations, tassel edges, and embroidery elements, it is recommended to give priority to dry cleaning or warm water hand washing. Such decorations are easy to entangle or fall off in the washing machine, affecting the overall appearance. In addition, hand washing can better control the washing strength and reduce the loss of prints or fabrics. In long-term care, the quilt cover and pillowcase can be ventilated and aired regularly to avoid the growth of bacteria or mildew in a humid environment and improve the durability of the product.

Storage is as important as daily maintenance
The maintenance of Bohemian style duvet sets is not only reflected in cleaning, but also includes the details of use and storage:
* Thoroughly dry before storing during the season change to keep dry;
* Avoid long-term exposure to the sun to prevent fading;
* Add a protective sheet or mattress cover during use to reduce the direct contact between the quilt cover and the skin and dust, which helps to extend the washing cycle;
* When storing, it can be matched with a desiccant to prevent moisture and mildew.
