At Lavender Fields, we understand that indulging in luxury bedding and towels is a small but significant way to enhance your life. To preserve the look and feel of our premium bedding and towels, proper care and maintenance are essential. In this guide, we share our expert tips on how to wash and maintain your Lavender Fields luxury bedding and towels so they last as long as possible.

2. Use a Mild Detergent, and Not Too Much Of It:
Opt for a gentle, mild detergent to protect the delicate fibers of your linens. Harsh chemicals can compromise the fabric's integrity and affect the softness and color vibrancy. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to find a hypoallergenic, fragrance-free detergent.
New, high efficiency washing machines require much less detergent than the older models. If you add too much soap, it won't make your clothes more clean: instead, it's likely to leave a film on your clothes and make dirt stick even more.

3. Cold Water is Key:
Because of new advances in laundry machines and soaps, you no longer need to wash your whites in piping hot water. Cold water prevents shrinkage and color fading, helping to prolong the life of your linens.

4. Gentle Cycle, Separate Loads, and the Right Washing Machine
Select the gentle cycle on your washing machine to minimize friction and stress on the fibers. It's crucial to wash your luxury items separately from heavier fabrics or items with zippers that might snag delicate threads.
If you're in the market for a new washing machine, skip the ones with an agitator column. Instead, opt for a front loader or an agitator-free top loader. These are much gentler on your clothes.

5. Skip the Fabric Softener (especially on towels)
Contrary to popular belief, luxury linens do not require fabric softeners. Fabric softeners can leave a residue on the fabric, diminishing its natural softness and absorbency. They also affect the absorbency of towels. Instead, add a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle occasionally to maintain freshness.
6. Tumble Dry on Low:
For your Lavender Fields luxury bedding and towels, follow the manufacturer's instructions on drying. Some bedding is best to hang dry; others you can tumble dry on low. High dryer temperatures can weaken fibers and compromise the product's quality. Remove items promptly to prevent wrinkles and maintain their pristine appearance.
By following these simple yet effective guidelines, you can ensure that your Lavender Fields luxury bedding and towels remain a testament to elegance and comfort, enriching your home decor experience for years to come.
