How to Clean Your Pillows

Anything worth keeping is worth maintaining. Our collection of pillows is made to be hotel quality with premium fill materials and 100% cotton sateen shells making them washable. However, we strongly believe that no matter where your bedding comes from, it's important to preserve the quality and extend its life with proper cleaning.

Wash by Hand

• Remove debris with a vacuum.

• Wipe the pillow with a solution of warm water mixed with a few drops of dish soap to remove body oils and surface dirt.

• Rinse with a damp cloth to remove soap residue.

• For yellowing or stains, spray hydrogen peroxide evenly over the pillow and let it air dry indoors or in the shade. Repeat this step if yellow stains remain.

Machine Washing

• Pre-treat yellowing or stains as directed above.

• Set your machine to a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the down.

• Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a detergent formulated for delicate fabrics. 

• Drying: Use the lowest heat setting for tumble drying. Add wool dryer balls to fluff the bedding throughout the drying process to ensure the even distribution of the fill. Larger items may require several cycles to fully dry. Ensure the product is completely dry before use.

Re-fluffing Techniques

• After washing and drying, vigorously shake your pillows and comforters to fluff up the fill. Pushing the ends toward the center and shaking is also effective for pillows.

• For comforters, lay flat and gently pat to encourage loft.

• To maintain freshness and protection, consistently use a pillow protector,  pillowcase, or comforter protector with your bedding items.

General Care Recommendations

• Storage: Keep bedding in a breathable bag in a cool, dry place when not in use.

• Freshening Up: Between washes, air out your bedding with the windows open on a dry, sunny day for a few hours.

• Allergies: Use hypoallergenic covers and wash bedding regularly (1-2 times per year or when soiled.)d

• Dampness: Ensure your items are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.

• For stains: Repeat pre-treating and/or wash multiple times before drying.

Remember, proper maintenance helps things last. Consistency will pay off.
