Silk bedding and how to wash silk bedding
Where do you buy silk bedding, how do you wash it? All these questions,
so little time. However, I do say they will both be answered in this
post I am now writing. You already know that quality and cheap are two
things that appear in the same sentence when buying them, at the right
places right? I'll explain about that later.
Your silk bedding is very important, and needs to be washed with
quality, care and handling or you will end up with a destroyed set,
which is not good. I would suggest that you wash it on 20 degrees, some
say washing it any higher won't affect the it. From my own personal
experience, I will tell you that both of these are very of true. Ok,
let's say you do something that is not wise, you didn't take my advice
about buying one from a good store. You will have problems with washing
the cheap ones brought from most of the high street stores because the
material in the silk bedding is weak and inconsistent; it's cheap
material.
The lavish quality material ones that you can get, are some of the best
ones that I have ever seen (my collection is now 12 strong!). The silk
bedding may shrink if you wash the silk bed sheets, I would firstly
suggest buying ones that look great, but if you have one which is not
that good, I would recommend that you hand wash it. Handwashing may
take up to half an hour, but it will look a lot better when it has been
finished.
However if you were wise enough to buy good quality ones, then heres
what you do.Wash it at 20 degrees with only a small bit of washing
conditioner, leave it to dry naturally weather its king size single
size or double size, make sure its hanging out doors. If not try leave
them to dry naturally in doors, radiators leave these marks on them,
even if it is quality silk bedding. After its dry, it will be ready to
be thrown back on to the bed to make your room look great again. Be
careful handling your silk bedding though, try not to drag or rip it,
they are sensitive and delicate.
If you should stain it then use your best removal cream, leave on the
surface of the stain for half an hour, then wash off with warm water.

Correctly washinga anything will give you longer use and enjoyment.
I often just wash my silk in a little baby shampoo & vinegar on the gentle cycle of the washing machine. "Essence of Silk" has the best prices & selection.
