Using this Laetitia coverlet set is easy. Just place the coverlet on top of your bed with the tufted medallion centered. Put the matching shams on your pillows to complete the look. You can use it all year round to keep your bedroom cozy. When it comes to cleaning, you can simply throw it in the washing machine as it's machine - washable. However, keep in mind that because it's made of chenille, some shedding will occur in the first 3 - 4 washes. This is normal and nothing to worry about. After a few washes, the shedding should stop. To maintain its quality, follow the normal washing instructions and avoid using harsh detergents. With proper care, this set will serve you well for a long time and keep your bedroom looking stylish.
