1. Trying to wet them in the shower with hot water for a few minutes and shape them with your hands, let them air dry (it is best under sunshine)

2. Or you can stuff them with foam or blanket and leave them for a few days to reshape these pendants.

It take a little time to fix, but you can try it to get the best shape. We hope you can understand for us. If you need more assistance, please let us know to get support. We would like to hear from you!

How to care for seagrass: 

  • For day-to-day cleaning, dry wipe the seagrass furniture with a soft cloth along the rows of grass. You can also use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove the dirt accumulated between the weave.
  • Seagrass furniture is weak compared to wood or metal furniture. Hence, never stand or kneel on them. When children are around, they need to be supervised so that they don’t use the furniture in a rough manner.
  • Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight fades the color of seagrass. Keeping the furniture away from direct sunlight and using a good varnish will keep the colors from fading.
  • It is best to get all repair and restoration work done by a professional. However, if you are doing it yourself, make sure all the weaves are of the same tightness. Bad joints have to be replaced, while discolorations can be fixed with a coat of paint. Coverings and cushions help to protect the furniture.
  • If you find that a liquid has spilled on the furniture, immediately use paper tissues to blot out the liquid and prevent staining. Always place your seagrass furniture in a well-ventilated area.
  • Get the furniture treated for borer as soon as you bring it home, to protect it from such pests
