Sewroo Ironing Board Cover – Care Instructions

Your new beaut Sewroo ironing board cover is fully machine washable- you can even put it in the clothes dryer! Read on for some handy hints to get the most life out of your cover.

Our covers are made from 100% cotton, this means that if regularly exposed to moisture the cotton will deteriorate. It also means that unnecessarily leaving your iron face down on your cover will over time cause the cotton to become brittle and tear.

How do I minimize these effects?

Never fill your iron with water over your cover. Spilt water will not only cause the cotton to deteriorate, but metals and other particles in the water will cause your cover to discolour.

In the same way, a leaky iron will cause premature wear and tear on your Sewroo ironing board cover. Brown marks are typically a symptom of this.

If you are one of those people that is in the habit of leaving your iron face down on your cover, an iron mat will help to protect your cover from scorching. Alternatively, try and always stand the iron up when sitting it on your cover.
For those people who use starches when they iron, please take care to wash your Sewroo ironing board cover on a regular basis. This will help to rise any residue from the starch that is left on the cover. Over time, a buildup of starch will cause your ironing board cover to become brittle and tear.

Remember- your Sewroo ironing board cover is reversible! Turn it over if your cover is torn or towards the end of its life to get the most from your investment in a quality Sewroo ironing board cover.

Happy ironing!
