A straw or raffia bag traps dust in its weave — but a dry routine brings it back to crisp.
Brush Out the Weave
A soft brush flicks dust from a woven tote. The totes in natural fibre love a gentle sweep.
Spot-Wipe, Never Soak
A barely-damp cloth dabs a mark; reshape and air-dry. A patchwork bag in woven cloth holds form that way.
The Rule
Pro tip: straw hates soaking — brush dry, wipe damp, reshape, and air-dry. Water warps and darkens natural fibre.
Care for the woven totes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you clean a straw bag?
Brush dust from the weave with a soft brush, then spot-wipe marks with a barely-damp cloth. Never soak — reshape and air-dry.
Can you wash a straw bag?
No — soaking warps and darkens natural fibre. Dry brush and damp spot-wipe only.
How do I keep a straw bag crisp?
Store stuffed so it holds shape, brush after wear, and keep dry. A dust bag between seasons helps.
