How to Care for Fine Luxury Bedding

Proper care of your fine luxury bedding can extend its life span and give you more time to enjoy it.

First of all, fill the washer with hot water just hot enough to dissolve the mild soap or enzyme detergent that you prefer. There should be plenty of room for the bulky bedding to circulate freely without being over crowded.

LeBlanc is a fine fabric enzyme wash that is popular with many.

Wash the bedding through a full cycle and then run it through a second rinse cycle since removing the soap or detergent residue is very important as, if not rinsed out thoroughly, it can cause yellowing or scorching when ironed.  Your luxury bedding deserves the best laundry provisions.

Chlorine bleach should never be used as fibers can become weakened and permanently damaged.

If you feel that you need to use bleach use a non-chlorine bleach sparingly.

What a wonderful fresh smell bedding has when it is dried on an outside clothes line. If an outside clothes line isn't permitted in your neighborhood try placing one in the basement or a retractable one over a bath tub or shower. By all means, don't over-dry your luxury bedding.

When you remove your bedding from the clothes line, or dryer, shake it gently and smooth it with the palms of your hands. This will help to prevent having to iron the bedding.
