Using this wedding arch cover is easy. First, find your 7.5ft round metal wedding arch. Unzip the ends of the cover and slide it onto the arch. The zippers are there to make this process a breeze. You can decide to let the open bottom brush against the ground for a more flowing look or tuck it in for a neater appearance. When placing it on the stand, be aware that the fabric might snag on the screw or butterfly screw. But don't worry, it won't tear. You can add some tape or a screw cover to help it go on more smoothly. Remember, this order is just for the arch cover, so you'll need to have your own stand. As for maintenance, gently spot clean the cover when it gets dirty. Avoid using harsh chemicals or rough scrubbing to keep the beautiful rose - gold Payette sequins looking great.
