WHITE TOWELS

 






White towels are the only way to go in my book. Many have asked me over the years, “How do you keep them clean?”


Easily! Wash and bleach or sometimes Oxy!! I find them so much easier to keep clean than a colored towel, which fades over time and looks dingy to me.

Here is a good method to whiten and brighten from time to time:
    • 1
      Treat any obvious stains or marks on the towels with hydrogen peroxide. Dab a small amount of hydrogen peroxide over the entire stain and allow it to sit for at least an hour before washing the towel.
    • 2
      Load the white towels into the washing machine and add laundry detergent as well as 1/2 cup of baking soda. The combination of detergent and baking soda helps to lift stains out of the fabric and whiten the towels.
    • 3
      Run the washing machine and add 1 cup of white vinegar during the rinse cycle. The vinegar will brighten the whites and help deep clean the fabric for the rest of the washing cycle.
    • 4
      Dry the towels thoroughly. Repeat steps 1 through 4 as necessary to get the towels looking professionally cleaned and whitened.


In my book there is nothing prettier than a stack of fluffy white towels.

I actually have quite a fetish for stacked white towels, so much so that I even have a pinboard for images of stacked white towels.

Let me show you………

Do you see yourself using all white towels in the future, or are you like me and have always used white towels?
