Preparations for the holidays are in full swing. This is the last moment to wash the curtains so that they are white and clean during this special time. Unfortunately, many people make basic mistakes. One of them is improper washing temperature and improper preparation for this process. The means in which we wash the curtains are also important. The products do not have to be expensive and you will find one of them in your kitchen.
How to wash curtains? First of all, prepare them properly before washing
Curtains should be properly prepared before washing. First, you should strip them of any removable ornaments. They are sometimes hooked flowers or butterflies, as well as beads and chains. They can hinder washing and be permanently damaged. Additionally, the curtains should be soaked before washing. It all depends on the room in which they were hung. If they were in the kitchen, fat may have deposited on them. It is worth immersing them in warm water with a little washing-up liquid. If they have dusty in the living room, then warm water will be enough without additional substances. Only then put them in the washing machine.
This trick is a way to make white curtains. How to wash curtains so that they keep their color?
When washing curtains, remember to use appropriate measures. Sometimes washing liquid may not be enough. Of course, use liquid or powder for delicate fabrics, but also use the way of our grandmothers. Add a pinch of baking soda to the laundry, which you can find in the kitchen. This will deepen the whitening effect and keep the snow-white shade for a long time. Set the washing temperature between 30 and 40 degrees.
Can curtains be spun? How to dry curtains to enjoy their nice appearance?
The most common mistake is spinning curtains. This cannot be done because they can be damaged. We leave the curtains in the washing machine for a dozen or even several dozen minutes to let them drain and then hang them on a string or a dryer. They must be taut so that they do not need to be ironed.
