Clothing Care- Tips and Guidelines

Invest in -a lint tape roller, a clothes brush, and a steamer.
After each wearing, empty the pockets, as they tend to bulge or sag.
Brush the garment with a Lint Roller. This removes lint, hair, surface dirt, Soil and prevents the stains.
Air the garments. Woven garments should be hung to allow any wrinkles to relax out.
Padded or plastic hangers are gentler than wire ones.
Avoid hanging a jacket, or any heavier garments.
Care for your clothes regularly, and unless you have a spill, you should only have to dry-clean them once, at the end of the season.
Stains left unattended can make their removal impossible. Treat any stains immediately to keep them from becoming permanent.
Do not Press a garment if it is stained. The heat of pressing will set the stain and make its removal impossible.
Do not use untested home stain removers or club soda. They can ruin the garment creating permanent damage.
Use a brush to lightly clean winter clothes. Use after each wearing. This will help keep them fresher for a longer period of time.
Before using stored garments air out the clothes for several days.
Wrinkles can be removed from stored garments made from wool, or wool blends by hanging them in the bathroom and allowing the steam from a shower to relax the wrinkles. After steaming, allow the items to hang overnight. Any unwanted creases that remain can be gently pressed out.
