This wall tapestry is very easy to use. You can hang it up on a wall inside your home to add a decorative touch, or outside if you want to spruce up a patio or garden area. When it comes to washing, just put it in the washing machine with cold water on a gentle cycle and use a mild detergent. Then tumble dry it on low heat. Avoid using hot water or high - heat drying as this may damage the fabric and affect the vivid colors. Also, be gentle when handling the tapestry to keep the hand - sewn edges in good condition.
