Christening Dress and Communion Gown Preservation
Preserve your child’s Christening dress, Baptism gown, or Communion gown for generations to come with Janet Davis Dry Cleaners. After your gown is carefully cleaned and pressed, it is only handled with white cotton gloves to prevent any oils staining the fabric. It is then packed in an acid-free chest and stuffed with acid-free tissue paper to protect it from light damage, dust, moisture, mildew, and other contaminants. It is best to store the gown in a cool, dry, and dark location until it is time for it to be worn again.
