How To Take Care Of New Shirt
Caring for Your New Favorite Shirt
Hey Mama! We know your days are busy—full of cuddles, carpool, coffee (hopefully hot), and everything in between. That’s why we’ve made our graphic shirt not just cute and comfy, but easy to care for, too. Whether you’re rocking your tee on a Target run or during nap time snuggles, a little extra TLC goes a long way in keeping it looking fresh and fabulous.
Here’s how to give your new favorite shirt the long life it deserves:
1. Machine Wash Cold, Gentle Cycle
We recommend tossing your tee into the machine on a cold, gentle cycle with similar colors. Cold water helps preserve the softness and prevents the colors from fading—especially those bold, fun graphicsyou love!
2. Turn Inside Out
Before washing or drying, turn your tee inside out. This small step makes a big difference in protecting both the fabric and the printed design. It helps minimize friction, fading, and unnecessary wear.
3. Avoid Bleach
Bleach might sound like a powerful cleaner, but it’s not your tee’s best friend. It can break down the fibers, fade colors, and weaken the overall fabric. So let’s keep bleach off the guest list.
4. Tumble Dry Low or Hang-Dry for Best Results
Want to keep your tee looking like new? Stick to a low heat setting when using the dryer. Even better—hang it to dry! Air-drying helps maintain the shape, softness, and vibrancy of your tee, giving it that just-bought feel longer.
5. Do Not Iron Directly on the Design
If your tee needs a little smoothing, go ahead and iron it—just make sure to avoid the graphic. High heat can damage the print, so either iron inside-out or avoid the design area altogether.
6. Skip the Dry Cleaner
Professional dry cleaning might be fancy, but it’s too harsh for our tees. The chemicals used can break down the graphic and fabric. Your washer and dryer are more than enough for everyday care.
You don’t need a complicated routine to keep your graphic tees in mom-life shape. Just follow these simple tips, and your shirt will stay soft, vibrant, and ready to wear for all your busy, beautiful moments. 💛
