A striking alternative to leather, this eco friendly waxed canvas is water repellent, and will develop a beautiful patina over time.

CARE:
*Wax is heat sensitive, take care not to expose to extreme heat.
*Use a lint roller to remove and dust or surface dirt.
*Spot clean with a soft brush or cloth. Use a little mild soap (like Castille soap) and water if needed.
*Water may cause discolouration; a blow dryer will remove the marks
*Dry with a clean towel.
*DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRYCLEAN
*DO NOT BLEACH, DO NOT TUMBLE DRY, DO NOT IRON.
*After some time, and heavy use, you may wish to re-wax the canvas. You can do this with a bar of wax such as Otter Wax Heavy Duty Fabric Wax
There may be creases and lines in the wax, after the shipping process. These are known as "craze" marks, and this patina adds beautiful character. To remove these marks, or to stiffen the basket, you can use a blow dryer. Hold the bag in one hand, and blow dry in a circular motion for several minutes until the creases disappear. Let it cool down, and the wax will harden; reshape the bag as desired. If you would like to re wax the bag, you can use a fabric wax of your choice. This particular fabric is waxed with beeswax.
