Tips for Cleaning Wildflower Stains from Chantilly Lace

  • Test a hidden part of the lace first to make sure the cleaning solution won’t damage it.
  • Do not use hot water as it can cause the lace to shrink and weaken.
  • Do not wring or twist the lace as it can cause it to fray.
  • Do not dry in direct sunlight as it can yellow the lace.
