Care Instructions
Each FayeCreations piece carries the warmth of human touch — thoughtfully made to age gracefully and tell your story over time.
Below you’ll find care guidelines for both our handwoven bags and our smooth leather styles.
Woven Bags
Each FayeCreations woven bag is handwoven, slow-made, and uniquely yours.
Natural variations in weave, tone, and texture are signs of true craftsmanship, not flaws.
- The Beauty of Handcraft
No two FayeCreations woven bags are identical. Each carries the mark of its maker — a quiet reminder of authentic, human craft.
- Handle with Lightness
Avoid overloading your bag with heavy items such as laptops or thick books.
Excessive weight can strain the weave or alter its shape over time.
- Let It Breathe
If your bag gets wet, gently pat away moisture with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use direct heat to dry — simply let it air-dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area.
- Rest and Keep Safe
When not in use, store your bag in its dust bag — soft, breathable, and gentle to the touch.
This allows airflow while protecting the weave from dust and mildew.
Leather Care Tips for Woven Bags
- Cleaning: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; use a leather-safe cleaner only if needed.
- Water Protection: Avoid rain and humidity — moisture can weaken glue or warp leather.
- Storage: Keep in a dust bag or cotton pillowcase; lightly stuff to retain shape.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use alcohol, solvents, or strong cleaners.
- Conditioning: Apply a quality leather conditioner occasionally to maintain suppleness.
- Sunlight & Heat: Avoid long exposure to direct sunlight or heat, which can dry or fade leather.
Sheepskin Leather Bags
FayeCreations’ smooth and sheepskin leathers are soft, natural, and designed to age beautifully with care.
- Avoid Moisture
If the leather gets wet, gently blot with a clean, dry cloth.
Let it air-dry naturally — never near a heater, radiator, or under direct sunlight.
- Thoughtful Storage
Store in a breathable dust bag or cotton pillowcase.
Lightly stuff the bag to maintain its shape and prevent creasing.
- Gentle Cleaning
Use a sheepskin-specific cleaner or mild baby shampoo (diluted).
Always spot test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Conditioning
Apply a soft, sheepskin-friendly leather conditioner sparingly to prevent drying or cracking.
- Handle with Clean Hands
Natural oils and lotions from your hands can leave marks — always handle with care.
Smooth Leather Bags
- Wipe regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.
- Avoid exposure to rain, heat, or prolonged sunlight.
- Store upright in its dust bag to maintain shape.
- Use conditioner every few months to preserve suppleness.
- Embrace aging: Over time, your leather bag will develop a unique patina — a beautiful reflection of your journeys.
Note from FayeCreations
Natural variations in grain, texture, and color are part of what makes each FayeCreations piece unique.
With thoughtful care, your bag will only grow softer, richer, and more beautiful with time.
