|  Clean and dry your down quilts for a fraction of the cost
Professionally clean your down quilts at home and save on costly dry cleaning! A friend of mine was advised by a dry cleaner that all they use is regular laundry detergent and cold water to wash down quilts that people bring in to be 'dry cleaned'. To fluff the down and get it back in place after washing, they just throw the comforter into a large dryer with three new tennis balls. I do this and it works great! My quilts come out looking like new ; you can also do this with your down pillows, as long as they are properly sealed

| |  Yeah I hadn't heard this til a few months ago when my ex-husband bought my son an expensive new down jacket. We tried to dry it in vain - it smelt and clumped together, eventually we found a small label with tumble dry with 3 tennis balls. Washed it yet again and dried as directed and it came out good as new!!! Didn't even think of using it in other ways - good tip! xxx

| |  Now I wish I had had this tip a month ago - before I ruined my son's down coat, I'm sure the tennis balls would have done the same for it. I've always tried to use a pair of clean tennis shoes for this but the day I washed his coat I had a brain fart and forgot...He now has a new coat and I will in the future remember tennis balls.
