Washing

[Karen Barbé · Textile designer · Laundry]

I don't always follow care labels – with different results of course. I hate dry-clean-only things. When I was a girl I played I owned a small laundry called "Turquesa" (turquoise). I hand washed only small items. Now my dad owns a laundry. No, he's not playing.

I don't always follow care labels either, especially when they say dry clean only.; 12:31 am
