To use this tapestry, you can hang it on your wall as a great decorative piece, either indoors like in your living room or outdoors on a patio. When it gets dirty, simply put it in the washing machine with cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent to keep the colors bright. After washing, tumble dry it on low heat. Avoid using harsh chemicals or high - heat settings as they may damage the fabric or fade the colors. Also, be careful when handling the hand - sewn edges to prevent fraying.
