CONTENT

  •     Front side is made of textured plush “minky” poly fabric which has a slight stretch and soft, short pile - giving a bold shimmery glow. The artwork is professionally printed using ecologically-safe transfer sublimation inks that provide vibrant color, strong wash durability and little need of ironing.
  •     Back side of case is made of soft fleece fabric. (In most cases, this will be a solid black or other complimentary color in blizzard fleece – although occasionally, we make a few with a matching pattern anti-pill fleece.)
  •     Pillowcase opening is “envelope-style” = two overlapping flaps on the reverse allow for you to stuff (or remove) pillow inside via opening in middle of back, allowing all visible perimeter edges to be fully-sewn.


CARE

  • Take out inner pillow to wash separately, if needed.
  • Turn case inside-out (or place inside a regular plain pillowcase) to keep soft texture intact.
  • Can be machine washed in cool water using a gentle/delicates cycle.
  • Air dry recommended, but may also be machine-dried using a low temperature (or permanent press setting) if removed promptly to avoid wrinkles.
  • Do not iron front side of minky fabric.
