However, there are a few things to keep in mind when washing or storing your favorite bedding. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to wash it?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Linen can be washed both in the washing machine and by hand without shrinking. If the linen is damaged during washing while following the instructions below, it is very likely that it is of poor quality or that chemicals have been used. <\/p>\n\n<p>1. Machine washing<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Separate colored linens from light-colored ones. Avoid washing them with other materials, especially jeans, fluffy blouses, or towels. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wash at temperatures below 40 degrees Celsius. Using high temperatures can cause the linen to shrink by up to 10%. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use a delicate wash cycle (if available)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use detergent for delicate fabrics or wool. Even baby detergent is recommended. Do not use bleach.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>2. Hand washing<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Soak the linen in lukewarm water with a mild detergent for 10-15 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use gentle movements for washing; excessive rubbing, twisting, or stretching of the material is not necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rinse and hang to dry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stain removal<\/h2>\n\n<p>The main rule for removing any stain from linen is to soak the material as soon as it gets stained. A long period with grease or other types of stains will cause the substance to be absorbed into the material and will make the stain much harder to remove. <\/p>\n\n<p>Some more difficult stains can be removed using a little baking soda and a splash of vinegar, then gently clean with warm water.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drying the linen<\/h2>\n\n<p>We recommend drying the linen in the air, stretching and shaking it beforehand. When semi-dry, it is worth stretching them to be as soft as possible when used. <\/p>\n\n<p>Tumble drying can also be used, but please avoid programs with high heat. After the dryer, we also recommend ironing. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ironing the linen<\/h2>\n\n<p>Part of the charm of linen is all the creases and its non-rigid appearance, which gives the feeling of a comfortable and welcoming bed. If you choose to dry it naturally, it will look extremely comfortable. <\/p>\n\n<p>If you still want to iron the linen, use a medium temperature of the iron, a little steam, and preferably use a damp towel between the fabric and the iron.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storing linen<\/h2>\n\n<p>Linen should be stored completely dry (not semi-damp). Natural fibers need to breathe; we recommend storing them in cool, dry places. Avoid storing in plastic bags; you can use an old pillowcase instead.   <\/p>\n\n<p>Take care of the linen, and it will stay with you for generations. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Linen doesn&#8217;t need much care, as quality linen is a durable material that lasts very well.
