      Look for a tag on your papasan cushion. If the tag has a W under cleaning instructions, you need a solvent such as rubbing alcohol to spot clean stains. If it has W/S, you can use warm water and a few drops of dish soap. In the absence of a tag, do a spot test with either cleaning methods on a small inconspicuous area of the cushion. Wait 24 hours to see if either damages the fabric before proceeding.

      Dip a wash rag into the appropriate spot cleaner for your papasan cushion. Gently blot the solution into the area that needs cleaning. Rinse and re-dip your rag as needed. Do not over saturate your cushion.
