This could have been one of the worst days of my life.
My lovely Fur Coat was no more.. All sticky and full of moisture.. What a pain it was!!
Unless my aunt reminded that it could be restored. OMG that words gave me my life back!! And it took me minutes to rush for professional cleaners. And hurray..!!! Its alive..!!!
Can you even guess the reason for this mess? Packing!! Just because I kept it packed in store for too long.
And today I want to share some basic precautions you should take with your 'Fur Coat'.
1. Get your fur coat insured in case of any thefts so that at least you are not heart-broken.
2. Keep it away from sunlight and heat. Find a closet that is spacious and with no moisture in it.
3. Do not place them in garment bags and never hang them on wire hangers even on a plane.
4. Avoid use of perfumes, hair sprays, deodorant or any chemicals with it. Even avoid use of naphthalene balls.
5. If it ever gets wet, gently shake it and place it in a fully ventilated room.
6. It must be cleaned once a year whether used or not.
7. Never ever slide on the seat while sitting because fur coats don't go well with friction.
8. Don't store your coat over a long hot summer.
9. Always get your fur cleaned by professional cleaners and not any neighborhood dry-cleaners.
