Cleaning Dry Clean Only Drapery


Pictured is a bedroom set I love.  The problem is, the bedding and drapery are dry clean only.  It's trimmed with leather and buttons, so when I priced out the dry cleaning cost it was nearly $100 for the bedspread!  I love it but not that much.

What I have been doing for the time being is every time I change the bed I hang the bedspread outside.  In the cold months, the low temperature is sure to kill the dust mites.  Next time I'll buy a duvet  cover instead of a heavy bedspread, or I'll buy a washable bedspread.

The draperies pick up dust and dander too.  So I put them in the dryer with a fabric sheet and air fluff them.  This does a great job!
