🧼 How to care for your bassinet so it lasts for years

✨ Why is maintenance important?

Your crocheted Moses basket is much more than just a bed: it's a little handmade cocoon that accompanies your baby during their first months. Regular and gentle care will keep it soft, clean, and in good condition for a long time.

🌿 Best practices for cleaning a crocheted bassinet

✅ As the base of the bassinet is made of wood, you cannot put it in the washing machine; it is essential to clean it by hand.

✅ Use a damp cloth and neutral soap to remove small stains.

✅ Avoid harsh chemicals to prevent damage to natural fibers.

✅ For daily maintenance, give it a quick vacuum at low power to remove dust.

💧 How to properly dry your bassinet?

After a light cleaning, let your bassinet air dry, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Absolutely avoid using a tumble dryer: the heat could warp the rope and cause it to lose its shape.

🧴 Quick tips to stay in shape

👉 Do not overload the bassinet with heavy objects or too many soft toys.

👉 Always store it on a flat surface.

👉 If needed, you can lightly dampen the rope and reshape it by hand.

🌟 A bassinet that lasts over time

With these small gestures, your bassinet will remain soft and welcoming for your baby, ready to accompany them in all their naps and cuddle moments.
