Cushion Care
Caring well for your cushions is something that can be easily overlooked. With a few helpful tips you can keep yours looking in top condition for years to come.
New cushion care
- When inserting cushion pads into the covers make sure the pad is tucked right into the corners of the cover. This avoids creasing and ensures a good looking fit and nicely filled fabric.
- Daily plumping and regular airing will be beneficial for lasting comfort with even spread of feathers/filling.
- To plump up a square feather cushion hold opposite corners and bring together several times to introduce air into the cushion. Repeat the action holding the other corners.
- Pat firmly with the palm of your hand to evenly distribute the filling.
- Pillows may arrived compressed with the air removed for shipping purposes. Air will need to be worked back into the pillow to fluff back up.
- Feather is a natural product and new pads may need to 'breathe' out of the packaging before use.
To keep your cushions looking their best
- Choose the right cushion fabric and size for its purpose and intended use.
- Plump daily and alternate positions to allow for even use across the set.
- Keep out of direct sunlight. Alternating the facing side regularly if possible.
- Avoid using sprays, chemicals or fresheners, which may affect the fabric colours.
Wash care instructions
- Please consult the internal wash care label on your product.
- We recommend cleaning all matching items together.
- Cushion pads are generally sized 1" larger than the cover to give a generous plump finish. When inserting or removing pads please take care and avoid placing stress on the zip and seams.
Inserting & removing your cushion pad
To insert pad:
- Place on a clean flat surface.
- Gently fold the cushion pad in half, compressing air out to reduce size.
- Place folded cushion pad into cover opening. Gently unfold, working the pad into each corner.
- Once the pad is fitted within the case slowly work the zipper closed along the length.
To close the zip:
- Holding the base of the zip bring the two sides close together as you go. Avoid pulling the delicate fabric and do not place excess force on the zip.
- ‘Plump up’ after closing to distribute the filling.
To remove pad:
- Place on a clean flat surface.
- Compress air out to reduce size.
- Slowly unzip being careful not to pull the delicate fabric.
- Reach into the cover and fold the pad in half. Once air has been removed, gently slide out of cover.
- Do not force pad or cover as this may cause damage to zip or seams. Compress down as needed until the pad can be easily removed.
