Proper care extends the life of your bedding and keeps it feeling fresh and comfortable night after night. Here's everything you need to know. ## How Often Should You Wash Your Sheets? Aim to wash your bed sheets once a week. If you sweat heavily or have pets that sleep on the bed, twice a week is better. ## Washing Instructions by Fabric - **Cotton** — Warm water, gentle cycle. Avoid bleach unless white. - **Linen** — Cool or lukewarm water. Air dry when possible. - **Bamboo** — Cold water, gentle cycle. Never tumble dry on high. - **Microfiber** — Cold water. Low heat in the dryer. ## Drying Tips - Remove sheets promptly from the dryer to prevent wrinkles. - Avoid over-drying — it weakens fibers over time. - Air drying in sunlight naturally disinfects and brightens whites. ## Storing Your Bedding - Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. - Fold and store pillowcases inside the matching sheet set for easy access. - Use breathable cotton storage bags, not plastic. ## What to Avoid - Fabric softeners (coat fibers and reduce breathability) - Hot water on coloured sheets (causes fading) - Overloading the washing machine (prevents thorough cleaning) With the right care routine, your bedding will stay soft, fresh, and long-lasting.
