Hey there! Using your Parvati Pillow is super easy. Just place it on your couch or chair to enhance your modern decor. If it flattens during transit, don't worry. First, gently knead the pillow to loosen the fibers. Then, put it in the dryer on a low tumble setting with a sock stuffed with a tennis ball. This will help it get fluffy again. When it comes to maintenance, spot clean it or hand wash it in cool water. Never dry clean, bleach, or wring it. You can iron the back side at medium temperature, but don't iron directly on the metallic print. And please, don't tumble dry it. Follow these tips, and your pillow will stay in great shape for a long time!
