Cleaning bed pillows regularly helps keep them white, fresh, and free of odors. Here’s a simple and effective method to restore your pillows to their original brightness and leave them smelling sweet.
What You’ll Need:
- Mild liquid laundry detergent
- 1/2 cup baking soda (for deodorizing)
- 1 cup white vinegar (for removing stains and odors)
- Optional: Essential oil (like lavender or eucalyptus) for a fresh scent
- Washing machine (ideally a top-loader)
- Dryer or a clothesline for air-drying
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Check the Care Label
Before cleaning, check your pillow’s care label for specific washing instructions. Most synthetic and down pillows are machine-washable, while memory foam pillows are best spot-cleaned as they may lose shape in the wash.
Step 2: Pre-Treat Stains
If there are visible stains, you can pre-treat them before washing:
- Make a paste of baking soda and a little water. Apply it to stained areas and let it sit for about 30 minutes.
- Gently scrub with a soft brush or cloth, then rinse with water.
