Introduction:
Over time, bed pillows can become yellowed, stained, and a little less-than-fresh from sweat, oils, and regular use. Instead of tossing them out, you can revive them to look almost brand new with a few simple steps. This method naturally brightens, deodorizes, and refreshes your pillows, leaving them clean, fluffy, and sweet-smelling.
Ingredients:
1 cup laundry detergent (liquid or powder)
1 cup powdered dishwasher detergent
1/2 cup baking soda
1 cup white vinegar
Hot water
Optional: a few drops of essential oil (like lavender or eucalyptus for a fresh scent)
Instructions:
Pre-treat stains if needed by applying a little detergent directly to spots and gently scrubbing.
Set your washing machine to the hottest, largest load setting.
Add the laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, baking soda, and vinegar directly into the drum.
Place two pillows (to balance the load) in the machine vertically.
