Canvas Care Guide
Handmade canvas goods should be cared for according to the product page first. General guidance is useful only when it does not conflict with product-specific materials, fiber content, or construction.
Product pages should include fiber content, care instructions, safety notes, dimensions, weight, and capacity. General canvas care is spot cleaning with mild soap and air drying unless the product page says otherwise.

FAQ
Can handmade canvas goods be machine washed?
Only if the product page says so. Small structured textile goods can distort when soaked or machine washed.
How should canvas pouches be stored?
Store them clean, dry, and lightly filled or flat so fabric, seams, and closures are not stressed.
For handmade canvas goods, product-specific care notes are more reliable than generic washing advice.
