February 9, 2009
When winter arrives, so does our task of opening up our woolens; and when winter departs, we get into the task of storing our woolens safely for the next season. After all, you can’t just wear winter clothes in one season and throw them after that. You need to preserve and store them safely for next winters. This is crucial and important and following proper storage tips is essential to keep woolens in a safe and healthy condition.
To make your woolen clothes last for a long time, you need to take proper care of them. Before packing away your sweaters, coats, pullovers and other winter clothing, make sure to clean them to remove stains, if any. This is important so that you do not get permanent stains on your woolen clothes. Get your expensive woolens dry cleaned before packing them. Cleaning your woolens before packing is essential for removal of food stains and body oil which can attract moths.
Instead of hanging your woolen clothes in a closet, try to stack them properly in a container. Preferably store them in air-tight containers as it helps in preventing woolens from moths. To prevent your woolens from moths, you can add mothballs to the container in which your woolens are stored. However, instead of adding them directly and loosely to the clothes, place them in a cloth bag near the stored clothes. Also, prevent these mothballs from children as they can seriously harm them.
Experts advise that fur garments need to be stored in a dark, cool place with fur always covered with clean and white muslin. This helps in increasing its life and beauty. Also, do not store your woolen garments in extreme temperature as they can be damaged there. Follow these tips and store your woolens in a safe and protective way.
