Keep Your Handloom Sarees As Good As New

How To Keep Your Handloom Sarees As Good As New

The tag will always say specifically ‘Dry Clean Only’.

Now you don’t want anything to happen to your saree, not one bit. Not to its colour, to its fabric and nothing at all. Okay it’s handloom I got it.

And now the predicament. How best to look after your handloom saree that it looks as good as new each time?

Handloom sarees especially the heirloom-quality, Paithini, Kanjeevaram, Patola, Chanderi, Pat Silk, Kalamkari or the alluring Banarasi, need to be taken care of with utmost love and tenderness.

One of the worst nightmares, let’s suppose I know it’s hard but lets just suppose you attend a wedding and few drops of curry ruins your saree.

Oh no! What to do now?

Apply water? That will definitely get the stain a little mild but in the long run will it wash away. Your mood is off for the night, you can’t concentrate on the wedding anymore.

Of course we all know, the easiest way to undo the damage is to send it promptly to the dry cleaner. But would your mother have done the same thing? What is life without the luxury of a dry cleaner? And you certainly remember how their sarees remained new as always for years

Let Us Help You With That:

Home Remedies to Keep your Handloom Sarees Intact

If you haven’t seen dry cleaning yourself let me tell you that dry cleaning is a horrifying thing to do with your clothes.

How to wash a handloom saree?

Yes, yes we are telling you to wash your handloom saree! Don’t worry you will make your mother proud. Just follow these steps 

  • Soak the handwoven saree in saltwater for a while. Read again. Just for a little while. Do not just do it and forget about it your saree will lose its colour.
  • Rinse it a couple of times in cold water. Good cold water.
  • Use a mild detergent to hand wash the handmade saree. Stay away from an advertisement for promising products.
  • Remember the shampoo rule ‘More important than applying it to the hair, is to ensure you remove it properly.’ Remember this thoroughly.
  • Also, the soap needs to be washed off almost immediately
  • Use only cold water.‘Wash the Saree, with all your focus, with giving attention to each part separately’

 

Do not

  • Use a brush, Never.
  • Bundle it up like a towel. It’s a sin.
  • Wash the handwoven sarees in a washing machine.

An ugly stain, you just know it when you see it?

I’ll shout, run, just take this immediate action, don’t wait to get to your home and start this process.

How To Remove Stains From A Handloom Saree

  • If it is a cold drink or a curry stain rush to the parking area, dip your handkerchief into the petrol box and wipe off the stain! petrol acts like magic.
  • If petrol is not in hand which won’t be there most of the time then for food stains, the good old talcum powder comes to the rescue. Let the powder soak the oil and then simply wash it off gently.

How to Dry a Handloom Saree After Wash

You get into this only if you have been endowed with qualities like patience. This takes time.

  • Always dry your precious handloom sarees in partial shade, avoid full exposure to the sun 
  • Do not wring the saree, just don’t you will destroy your own saree.
  • Unlike what we have been doing for years, we need to dry the sarees on a flat surface.
  • Wash separately, do not wash two sarees together.

Ironing A Handloom Saree

  • Always press your sarees keeping the iron in medium to low heat.
  • Never spray water on it before ironing as it may leave permanent marks on the fabric.

 

We hope we have been of some good help to you. Trust us, we are equally pleased to share such good techniques with you.

Love Bengali Tant? Remember These 5 Tips While Buying Yourself A Handloom Linen Saree

For some saree is primarily a long piece of cloth that is unstitched and usually 6 yards in length and is draped in a particular pattern. But in India when one thinks about traditional Indian attire then saree is probably the first thing that comes to his or her mind. India is a land which is known for its diversity and yet the unity among them, there are numerous varieties of Tant in India which effectively change when you travel from state to state in context to fabric, pattern, draping style and cultural importance.

Bengali saree is one of the most popular ones and their fame is not recent as they have a rich story to tell.

Remember tip 1: The Baluchari sarees from Bengal are five yards long and some forty two inches in width.

Origin & History

When it comes to Bengali saree, then Baluchari saree and Tant are the two most popular types that one will come across. The Tant sarees were quite famous at the time of Mughals in India. It is also been said that the British people wanted to ruin the Tant saree business in India but were never successful in their endeavors.

On the other hand, the Baluchari Tant is named after a small village in Bengal by the name of Baluchari and it was Murshid Quli Khan, who was the nawab of Bengal brought the art of making Baluchari Tant from Dhaka in the 18th century.

Remember tip 2: The Tant sarees are 6 meters long when compared to a normal saree which happens to be 5.5 meters in length.

Faces Behind The Fabric

The Baluchari sarees are mainly manufactured in Murshidabad.

The Tant sarees are woven all over West Bengal but places such as Hooghly, Nadia and Murshidabad can be regarded as the hubs of these sarees. The weaving methods used for making these sarees are traditional and the outcome is a light and colorful saree that is popular all over.

The Baluchari Tant are either made from Baluchari silk or from cotton Both types are known for their vibrant colors and designs.

Remember tip 3: The Tant saree is made from cotton thread and has a distinguishing feature of being light and somewhat transparent.

Present Scenario

The only thing that is permanent is change. Time brings change and there have been ample number of changes in the making process of these sarees as well. In recent times, more and more eco-friendly methods are being used to make these Handloom Saree and you will acknowledge them when you will take a closer look at the Baluchari sarees.

Remember tip 4: Bright colors are the dominant feature of both tenant and Baluchari Tant and they are well known for the same.

The modern Tant has various patterns on them and some of them also depict modern art. The organic Baluchari sarees use things such as used yarns as well as colors during the manufacturing process. The Tant sarees too have evolved with time and their popularity level has only increased.

Both Baluchari and Tant sarees have undergone some changes that have retained their traditional value but have also added the modern touch to them, so it never gets old and age like fine wine.

Dressing Occasions

The Baluchari sarees are a symbol of high status right from the start they were first stitched. Each saree takes a week to complete and the final product is what you can say a tangible form of style & elegance. They have been a mark of aristocracy since the beginning. The Baluchari and Tant sarees are usually made from silk and can be worn all year long. The Tant saree, on the other hand, is affordable and ideal for summers and especially for the humid climate as they are light and made from cotton.

Maintenance

You don’t want to sabotage your saree, after being so clever about buying the perfect saree while taking care of the pattern, price, fabric and style you do need to understand that both Bengali forms of sarees demand your care and attention.

Remember tip 5: Both Tant & Baluchari sarees are high maintenance as they are made up of silk and should be delicately handled as they are prone to the risk of tearing.

We hope you remember these five tips while buying your favorite Bengali saree.
