EASY CLEANUP

Must-do Moves for Beautiful Bedding
As a mom , I really like to see my favorite linens looking fresh and my pillows in prime condition. So I tried these tips:
  • Laundering-- try to wash sheets and pillow covers once a week (or at least every other) in warm water (hot fades colors). For extra softness, add a few drops of hair conditioner to the wash in the rinse cycle. Or you can use fabric conditioners, with antibacterial.
  • Preserving pillows--instead of tossing your fancy decorative pillow on the floor before getting into bed, keep a basket or hamper in a corner of the room and place pillows there.
  • Fixing feathers--fluff up flattened-down comforters and pillows by putting them in the dryer for 10 minutes on cool air.

Manage your Linens
  • USE your best linens. Don't keep waiting for special occasions.
  • KEEP your linens by set. The next time you change bed linens, it's easier to pull out.
  • THROW away everything you'll never use especially those having holes, or you can repair it and make them rags.
  • STORE vintage bedspreads away from everyday things to avoid stains and rips.
