Care instructions: All placemats have been pre-washed. Colors may run a bit when you first wash the product. but should not discolor. Therefore wash separately the first time. Machine wash on cold. You may put them in the dryer but they will shrink a bit. If removed from the dryer when warm, the placemats will not wrinkle. Smooth out the wrinkles and you likely won't need to iron the placemat. These pieces hold their color for years.
