Caring for your Table Linens
A lovely addition to any home, a well-dressed table sets the scene for many family gatherings and special occasions. The right tablecloth is the icing on the cake. Caring for your table linens by following these suggestions will ensure that your tables are properly dressed for years to come.
MACHINE WASHING
Machine wash in hot water for whites, cold for colors. Use pure soap for soft water or a gentle detergent in hard water, free from added bleach, whiteners, brighteners or softeners. It is not advisable to use bleach, as it will weaken the fabric and cause yellowing. Remember to use the rinse cycle to remove all detergent. This will help avoid “age spots” which are caused by oxidation of the fibers. If possible, treat stains when they are fresh. If allowed to set, stains may be impossible to remove at a later date. Delicate lace and embellished linens should be placed in a pillowcase or a mesh laundry bag before being placed in the washing machine.
DRYING
Avoid twisting or wringing out linens before drying. Tumble dry low until slightly damp. If possible, line dry in the sun to keep linen at its whitest. Do not use dryer sheets or liquid fabric softeners.
IRONING
Check to make sure your steam iron is clean - mineral deposits could cause brown spotting. Iron linens while still damp. If you cannot iron immediately, roll linens in a towel or a plastic bag and place in the refrigerator or freezer from 6 to 24 hours before ironing. This will make them easier to iron and prevent mildew. You can also use a hand-held steamer when the cloth is hanging from the table.
Embroidered linens should be ironed on the reverse side until smooth but not dry.
STORING LINENS
Store your table linens by hanging or rolling them around a tube to minimize creasing. Store in a well ventilated place. Cover linens only in cotton, linen or muslin, or wrap in acid-free tissue. Never use plastic, cardboard or cedar chests to store your fine table linens.
