What are the care instructions? TOP
Machine wash and dry on delicate or line dry. Iron on medium setting. Use spray starch for a crisp look. I have washed tea-stained items several times with only a slight fading of the tea-stain.
What tea-staining? TOP
Tea-staining gives items a warm, aged, primitive look. I soak an item in a solution of tea for about a half an hour. I wring out the excess and dry it in the dryer. After drying, I iron it. Multiple washings will only fade the tea-stain slightly. So it does last a long time.
