Follow these easy steps to care for your lambskin
-Keep it fluffy by brushing it.
-If you sit on your pelt all the time, it will start to flatten eventually. You need to brush and shake the sheepskin regularly to avoid this from happening.
-Shake it to help it repel dirt
-Avoid stains! Yes, the wool naturally repels dirt but please try not to spill wine, coffee or any other things that will stain it. If you get these types of stains you will be forced to make an effort to remove them at the risk of losing the lambskin’s natural potency.
-Use the cleaner that mother nature has given us: Starch. Simply dampen the wool a little, cover it with potato starch or cornstarch and rub it. Leave it to dry and then brush and shake the dry starch away.
-Don’t overuse water though. It’s not good for the wool to get too wet. And take it easy with the water temperature. It’s not good for the lanolin to be heated too much. It’s enough if you use lukewarm water.
-You should repeat this step every once in a while even if you don’t get a stain in order to keep your pelt fresh.
-Avoid direct sunlight sheepskin won't get destroyed if you place it in the sun but it will lose its fine tone so I always recommend this part for long term use.
