To use this duvet cover set, first open the button closure at the foot end and insert your duvet insert. Use the internal corner ties to secure the insert and prevent it from shifting. Then put the set on your bed and arrange the sham(s) for a complete look. When it's time to clean, remember to machine wash it cold, separately, and on a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach as it may damage the fabric. Tumble dry on low to avoid shrinkage. And please don't iron it. If your home washer or dryer is too small, take it to a commercial one for a proper clean. This way, your bedding will stay fresh and stylish for a long time.
