FAQs
Are these placemats heat resistant?
While the glass beads offer some protection, these placemats are not designed as trivets. It is recommended to use a separate trivet for extremely hot dishes to prevent potential damage to the beads or the underlying table surface.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, these placemats should not be placed in a washing machine or dishwasher. Cleaning should be done by hand with a damp cloth.
What is the material of the placemats?
The placemats are crafted from colored glass beads, featuring a graphic palm tree motif on a white background.
How large are the placemats?
The placemats have a round silhouette. Specific dimensions would typically be found in the product's detailed specifications.
Is this a set of four placemats?
No, this product is a set of two placemats.
How should I store these placemats?
It is best to store the placemats flat to maintain their shape and prevent damage to the beadwork.
Are the colors on the beads prone to fading?
The glass beads are generally colorfast. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve the vibrancy of the colors.
Troubleshooting
Beads appear loose or uneven
Gently adjust the beads by hand. If significant looseness is observed, contact customer support as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.
Stains on the placemat
Attempt to clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For stubborn stains, consult the care instructions and avoid harsh scrubbing.
Placemat does not lie flat
Ensure the placemat is not being stored folded. Lay it flat on a surface for a few hours to allow it to naturally flatten out. Avoid excessive heat which can warp the base material.
