Beautiful,luxurious,wearable,washable,affordable silk!!! It's warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and oh so easy to care for! My cats and I offer hand decorated silk to you in the form of scarves,shawls,pareos,camisoles,blouses,kimonos,dresses,teddy and pajama sets and wallhangings..I employ batik,shibori,handpainting and handstamping to bring about one of a kind results for each creation.Many pieces feature hand beading.I will be happy to bring your fantasy to fruition in silk-please contact me for made to order silk wearables and wallhangings. All Catmaid silk has been washed and pre-shrunk. Keep your Catmaid silk looking and feeling its best by hand washing it.Be sure to separate colors before washing .Fill a basin with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution .Gently agitate the water and silk. Rinse in clear, cool water until all the soap is gone then fill the sink again and add a quarter cup of white vinegar to the final rinse. Vinegar neutralizes any remaining soap and allows it to rinse out completely- restoring the fabric's natural sheen. It can make a dramatic difference! Give the fabric a final rinse in clear, cool water .Any remaining vinegar smell will disappear when the silk is dry. Roll up in a towel to remove moisture, then dry flat on a towel or on a padded hanger. Iron with a low-medium temp iron while still slightly damp. Winter's coming! Wear a Catmaid scarf-be warm and look cool!
