How to Hang a Pashmina

Hang your pashmina accessory to store it.

Pashmina scarves and wraps are comfortable garments made from a blend of silk and wool. Available in many colors, pashmina accessories add drama and comfort to any outfit. After you have made the investment in a pashmina shawl or wrap, you need to protect it. Hanging it is a good way to store your garment during warmer months when you will need it less often. When spread out, these kinds of wraps can be long and take up a lot of room. Hang your pashmina and save some room in your closet area or dresser.

Things You'll Need

• Wooden hanger
• Dry cleaner bag
• Cedar blocks

Instructions

1. Spread out your wrap on your bed. Smooth out all the wrinkles.

2. Fold the long left side into the center about one-third of the way. Smooth out any wrinkles.

3. Fold the long right side into the center about one-third of the way. Smooth out any wrinkles.

4. Slide the wooden hanger on to the shawl and slide it to the center of the shawl.

5. Lift the hanger up gently with your left hand and smooth out any wrinkles with your right hand.

6. Hang the pashmina wrap in the back of your closet.

Tips & Warnings

• Cover the pashmina with a dry cleaner bag to keep it from getting dusty. Add some cedar blocks to the bag to ward off pests.

• Do not hang the wrap if it is damp or wet. You will end up with a "bump" where the pashmina contacts the hanger.
