Canvas bags are stylish, simple and chic, but they do require special care if you want to keep them looking their best. If your bag has a printed logo, you'll have to clean it carefully so the dyes don't bleed and the fabric doesn't lose its shape. Discover the best way to keep your canvas bag looking fresh and clean.
Dab, Don't Dunk
Use a wet sponge and mild detergent to spot clean your canvas bag. Never submerge it into water, as it may shrink or become discolored. Apply the soap onto the sponge or washcloth, not onto the bag itself. Then, gently dab at the stain without scrubbing. Allow it to dry naturally. Repeat if necessary.
We are constantly expanding our product line & the maps and chart designs we offer. Here is a sample of a request we received today for the Berry Islands in...guess where...the BAHAMAS!!!
I think its a sign... we are meant to visit the Bahamas. We would love a new account in the Exumas! A very dear friend from Miami, who knows how to live more than anyone I've ever met in my life, says that when you fly into the Exumas, the view of the ocean, islands, and sand looks like god took his bare finger and painted swirls of heaven in the ocean. Whether you believe in god or not, if that doesn't make you want to fly into the Bahamas, then I don't know what will!
Here is a view on a yacht in the Exumas... sporting our nautical chart pillows, of course.
Fernandez Bay Village on Cat Island in the Bahamas...WE DELIVER! We've been know to make personal deliveries to the resorts we supply our custom chart bags to.
