Using this backdrop stand cover is a breeze. First, make sure your 7ft round top wedding arch stand is assembled. Then, simply pull the cover over the stand. Since it's a snug - fit pullover, it will stay in place nicely. As for care, avoid sharp objects that could tear the shimmer tinsel spandex. If it gets dirty, you can gently hand - wash it in cold water and let it air - dry. That way, your antique gold backdrop stand cover will look great for many events to come.
