• Boutique clothing is known for its high-quality materials, unique designs, and attention to detail, making it a valuable addition to any wardrobe. To maintain its beauty and longevity, it's essential to handle these garments with care. Below are some simple but effective tips to keep your boutique clothing looking fresh and stylish for years to come.
•  **Check the Care Label First**  Before washing or treating your boutique clothing, always check the care label. This small tag provides essential information on how to properly clean and maintain your garment, from washing and drying instructions to special care recommendations.
•  **Separate for Washing** To prevent damage and preserve fabric integrity, wash boutique clothing separately from everyday garments. Many boutique pieces feature delicate materials or intricate details that could be snagged or worn down by other items in the wash. Separating clothes also helps avoid color bleeding and fading.
•  **Opt for Gentle Washing Methods**  Delicate fabrics like lace, chiffon, or silk require extra care. Whenever possible, hand-wash these pieces in cold water using a mild detergent. If using a washing machine, select a gentle or delicate cycle to minimize wear and tear.
•  **Choose a Mild Detergent** Harsh detergents and fabric softeners can break down fibers and alter the texture of boutique clothing. Instead, use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics to help maintain their shape, color, and softness.  
• **Air Dry for Best Results** Avoid using a dryer, as heat can cause shrinkage, fading, or distortion of delicate fabrics. Instead, lay garments flat on a clean, dry surface to air dry. Hanging certain fabrics may lead to stretching, so drying flat is the best option for preserving the original shape.
•  **Store with Care** Proper storage is key to keeping boutique clothing in excellent condition. Fold delicate items neatly or hang them on padded hangers to avoid stretching. Keep garments away from direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time.
•  **Final Thoughts** Investing in boutique clothing means investing in quality, and taking the right steps to care for these pieces will help extend their lifespan. By following these simple care guidelines, you can ensure your wardrobe remains stylish and well-preserved for years to come.  

• I hope you love your new treasures! To take care of your new gems, it is important to understand how to properly care for turquoise/other gemstones & how to store it safely. Without the proper care, your stones can become discolored & even potentially damaged. To prevent any harm to your new jewelry, please read the helpful hints below so you can protect & preserve your handmade treasures.
• Turquoise measures 5 to 6 on the Mohs hardness scale. It is relatively fragile, porous, & susceptible to heat and chemical damage. Due to this stone’s properties, you should protect it from heat, chemicals, & shocks.
• Avoid getting your jewelry wet, exposing to perfumes, dish soap, hot water, soap, lotion, sunscreen, coffee, tea, soaking in water, oils, or any oil-based substance.
• Clean your jewelry with a clean soft cotton cloth, free of cleaning agents. It is safe to clean sterling & copper using an anti-tarnish polishing cloth, avoiding contact with the stone. Many collectors will want to keep the natural patina & polishing can devalue a piece,but that’s up to you!
• Keep your jewelry in its proper storage after every use. You can wrap it carefully with a tissue paper or a 100% cotton cloth & place it in your jewelry box or in a zip-lock plastic bag. By doing so, you can prevent tarnishing (eliminating exposure to air) & the possibility of hard materials or other jewelry scratching your handmade treasures.
