Using these pillow covers is a breeze. Just unzip the cover and insert your pillow form. You can use them indoors on your couch, chair, or bed to add a coastal touch. Outside, they're perfect for your patio furniture. When it comes to maintenance, since they're water - resistant, a quick wipe with a damp cloth should be enough for most spills. If they get dirty, you can machine - wash them on a gentle cycle. Make sure to air - dry them to keep the fabric in good condition. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach as it may damage the UV protection. Also, don't leave them in direct sunlight for extended periods, even though they're UV - resistant, to ensure their long - term color and quality.
