To use this bedspread, simply lay it on your queen or king - sized bed. It can be used as a decorative piece on top of your sheets or as a cozy cover on its own. When it comes to cleaning, it's best to follow the care instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash in cold water and a low - heat tumble dry will keep it looking great. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as they can damage the delicate embroidery and colors. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent any mildew or discoloration.
