Our hotfix rhinestones has a high-quality glue pre-applied on their back, when heated to 171°C (340°F) for 40 seconds, it creates a strong bond for the hotfix rhinestones to be attached to the fabric. It is recommended to do a small test on a similar fabric first.
How to apply hotfix rhinestone with regular household iron
1. For optimal results please pre heat your iron to 171°C (340°F) or cotton/ high temperature.
2. Place the rhinestone in position on your garment. You may find it helpful to use tweezers for precision.
3. To protect your iron, garment and surrounding materials we advise to sandwich the hotfix and garment between baking paper while ironing. This will help protect both the rhinestone and the garment.
4. Press the iron onto the rhinestone through the baking paper for about 40 seconds. Ensure to apply firm, even pressure and do not move the iron to prevent the rhinestone to move away from the correct position.
5. Remove the iron and let the rhinestone cool down before checking its attachment.

Tips for applying and after care:

• Ensure the area you're applying the rhinestone to is flat and smooth.
• Empty the water in your iron, no steam is needed when applying as it can affect the glue’s effectiveness.
• Do not apply heat for more than 45 seconds
• After applying the rhinestone, let the garment rest for at least 24 hours to set completely before wearing or washing.
• Follow the original wash care label of the garment

TENCEL™ Modal is a cellulosic fibre made from beechwood.

When trying on garments:

• Remove any jewellery.
• Avoid wearing makeup.
• When trying on jumpsuits, playsuits or trousers, please make sure the hygiene sticker is left on.

Looking after your new favourite Oh Polly piece:

• Washing:
  Machine wash your TENCEL™ garments on a gentle cycle using cold water. Use a mild detergent to minimise environmental impact. Avoid harsh detergents and bleaches, as they can damage the fabric’s integrity.
• Drying: Reshape whilst damp. Opt for air-drying whenever possible. If using a dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent excessive shrinkage or damage to the fibres. Do not dry clean or tumble dry.
• Ironing: Use a low-heat iron setting for TENCEL™ clothing. If your iron has a steam setting, that can help remove wrinkles effectively. Iron on reverse.
• Storage: Hang TENCEL™ garments to allow them to breathe and prevent creasing. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause colours to fade over time.

Synthetic fibres are man-made, such as polyester, polyamide, acrylic and elastane. These are the fibres we use in our Georgette, Satin, Mesh, and Vinyl fabrics.

When trying on garments:

• Remove any jewellery.
• Avoid wearing makeup.
• When trying on jumpsuits, playsuits or trousers, please make sure the hygiene sticker is left on.

Looking after your new favourite Oh Polly piece:

• Wash less: During the washing process, fibres can break, damaging the garment and the environment. Therefore, we recommend airing and steaming your garments in between washes as well as spot-treating stains.
• Wash colder and shorter: Elastane can lose its stretch when washed at too high a temperature and washing cooler (30°C) and on a shorter cycle is generally good practice for all synthetics to prevent damage.
• Skip the spin cycle and tumble dryer: Tumble dryers produce a lot of friction and heat resulting in fibre shedding and damage to your garment. Particularly for garments containing elastane tumble drying will cause it to lose its stretch.
• Put any synthetic clothing in a washable garment bag: This protects the clothes and prevents microplastics from entering our waterways.
