In one of my previous articles, I had the opportunity to talk you about the Artipoppe baby carrier. Indeed, in addition to being very pretty, it is a high quality product, made with the best materials. Like any other quality product, your Artipoppe baby carrier requires regular maintenance to make sure it remains in good condition and can be used for a long time. In this article, I will share my experience and give you my advice for maintaining your Artipoppe baby carrier. I used mine for my 2 babies and now I gave it to my sister-in-law, for her future baby. There will be a surprise because I will be able to share a link, allowing you to have 50 euros off, in case you decide to buy your baby carrier on the Artipoppe site.
1. Wash your Artipoppe baby carrier regularly
One of the most important steps when it comes to maintaining your Artipoppe baby carrier is to wash it regularly. This not only helps maintain optimal hygiene for your baby, but also extends the life of the carrier.
Artipoppe recommends washing its baby carriers by hand, using cold water and a mild detergent. It is also recommended to avoid using fabric softener or bleaches as they can damage the fibers of the fabric. When it comes to drying, it is better to let the carrier dry naturally. For my part, the one I have is in cotton and I have already washed it in the washing machine. But be careful, it should not be mixed with other clothes, in order to avoid pilling and snags. I also used the 30 minute cycle at 30°C.
2. Avoid rubbing and snagging
Friction and snags can also damage the fabric fibers of your Artipoppe baby carrier. To do this, avoid rubbing your baby carrier against rough surfaces or leaving it lying on the floor. Be careful, especially if you have cats, do not let them approach your baby carrier ☺.
It is also important to take care of the buckles, straps and fasteners of your Artipoppe baby carrier. Avoid pulling too hard on the straps and buckles to avoid damaging them.
3. Fix rips and tears fast
Despite your precautions, your Artipoppe baby carrier may suffer rips or hitches. If this happens, it’s important to repair the damage quickly to prevent it from getting worse. Artipoppe offers repair services for its baby carriers. If your Artipoppe baby carrier is damaged, you can contact the brand for advice on the necessary repairs by sending them an e-mail on info@artipoppe.com
4. Protect your Artipoppe baby carrier from UV rays
UV rays can damage the fabric fibers of your Artipoppe baby carrier, causing discoloration and loss of quality. To avoid this, it is recommended to protect your Artipoppe baby carrier from UV rays by keeping it in the shade, when possible. Indeed, this does not mean that you should not wear it during the summer holidays, far from that. If you have to leave your baby carrier in a car during the summer, remember to put it out of the sun. Place it in a place that is not exposed to heat, because again, the sun and the heat, can damage the fibers of the fabric.
5. Store your Artipoppe baby carrier in a dry and clean place
When you are not using it, it is important to store your Artipoppe baby carrier in a dry and clean place. By doing this, you will avoid mold and unpleasant odors. Be sure to store it in a place free from moisture and dust. If your baby carrier is wet or still slightly damp, let it dry well in the sun. Once done, you can store it in its fabric bag and in its pretty box. Yes, Artipoppe does things perfectly. Your baby carrier comes in a dust bag and a nice box where he can quietly wait for the next big event.
I hope these tips will be useful to you. For my part, I hesitated to put it in the washing machine, but since it was not mixed with other fabrics, I took the risk and indeed, it came out safe and sound ☺.
