Linen is known for its low-maintenance beauty, but a little care goes a long way in keeping your pieces looking and feeling their best. Here’s a guide to making your Entrelinos linens last for years, if not decades.
Washing
Linen can be machine-washed. Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or optical brighteners, which can weaken fibers over time.
Drying
Air drying is ideal. Hang your linens to dry naturally to preserve their texture and structure. If using a dryer, choose a low heat setting and remove the items while still slightly damp to prevent stiffness.
Ironing (or Not!)
You don’t need to iron linen—its natural wrinkles are part of its charm. If you do prefer a crisper look, iron while the fabric is still slightly damp on a medium-high setting.
Stain Removal
Tackle stains as soon as possible using a gentle, natural stain remover. Avoid scrubbing too hard; instead, dab and rinse with lukewarm water.
Storage
Store linens in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic containers, which can trap moisture. Linen breathes best when folded and kept in natural fabric bags or lined wooden drawers.
By following these simple tips, your Entrelinos linen will only get better with time—softer, more relaxed, and even more beautiful.
