Women love to buy bags, especially luxury designer bags, which is a good motivation or reward for your own hard work in a year! But for those bag lovers, do you know how delicate designer bags actually are, even with a high price tag?
Bags need constant care, and in know way can they be exposed to moisture. Mold forms in no time, and you may find your bag in ruins just by leaving them in places with too much humidity.
Here’s how to maintain your beloved designer bags! Hurry up and learn!
AVOID MOISTURE AT ALL COSTS
Sometimes it is inevitable to encounter rain when you go out with your bag. If your bag is accidently exposed to rain, wipe your whole bag with a glass cloth until dry. Leave your bag to aerate in ventilated places to speed up drying.
Do not ever, ever wipe your bag with NAPKINS or TISSUES unless you want your bag to be stained and scratched with impurities from these recycled paper towels.
Many people don’t know how to store the bag. If you don’t need to take it back into the box/bag after you carry it, it will simmer the bag, and you will find that the leather of the bag has changed over time!
Keep your Bag Ventilated
Its best to reserve an area in your closet for storing bags. However, before you store them in, make sure your bags are ventilated for at least few hours before as they might capture some moisture when the bag has been out and exposed in public areas.
Keep your Bag Bloated
Don’t think for a second that your bag will be able to hold its original shape for long term if it’s empty. Stuff some protective bubble wraps or air bags into your bag when not in use, so that you can keep it always in its original silhouette and shape.
What to Do if your Bag is Moldy
Don’t fret; it’s not the end of the world. Should you notice molds forming or already fully formed on any area of your bag, just spray some sanitary alcohol on a piece of dry cloth and wipe the moldy parts until all molds are removed. Aerate the bag immediately with a fan after doing so.
Note: DO NOT spray alcohol directly on the bag!
Buying a designer bag is only the start of a beautiful journey; you have to maintain it to maintain its value!
