Why Proper Care Matters for a Muslin Changing Pad Cover
A changing pad cover takes daily wear and tear. The Mebie Baby Taupe Stripe Muslin Changing Pad Cover is made from 100% cotton muslin, which is soft and breathable for your baby's skin. Proper care keeps it gentle and extends its life.
Muslin fabric can shrink or lose its softness if washed incorrectly. Following the right steps ensures the cover stays snug, clean, and comfortable for every diaper change.
How to Wash Your Changing Pad Cover
Wash in cold water to protect the fabric and maintain the cover's shape. Cold water prevents shrinkage and keeps the taupe stripe colors from fading.
Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, which can break down the muslin fibers and reduce breathability.
For best results, wash the cover separately or with similar soft items. This prevents snags and keeps the elastic edges in good condition.
- Step 1: Remove and pre-treat stains: Take the cover off the changing pad. Spot-treat any stains with a small amount of gentle detergent before washing.
- Step 2: Machine wash cold: Set your machine to cold water and a gentle cycle. Add the cover and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach.
- Step 3: Tumble dry low: Dry the cover on low heat. High heat can shrink muslin. Remove it promptly to reduce wrinkles.
