Using this duvet cover set is easy. First, open the button closure at the foot end and put in your padded insert (which you'll need to buy separately). The internal corner ties will keep the insert in place. You can switch between the floral and polka - dot sides to change up the look of your child's bed. When it's time to clean, machine wash it cold separately on a gentle cycle. Never use bleach as it can damage the fabric. Tumble dry on low. Don't iron it, as the heat might harm the chenille texture. If your home washer or dryer can't handle it, take it to a commercial one with a large capacity. This will help keep the fabric fresh and long - lasting thanks to its antimicrobial treatment.
