Washing & Cleaning of TIDY Square Fabric Bread Baskets: These fabric bread baskets are made with rigid poly sides and bottom panels and acrylic-coated cotton fabric that makes them water-proof and stain-proof. To clean the TIDY do it in your kitchen sink using a mild dish soap detergent, to wash stains away and food particles off the surfaces, run the TIDY under warm wather to rinse off the soap. Just set out the TIDY on a dish rack to air-dry, them store it away un-tied flat, or re-tie the 4 corners with bows for immediate use.
