Care Tips for Dohar & Blankets: Extend the Life of Your Comfort
Dohar and blankets are essential in providing warmth, comfort, and style to your home. To ensure they last long and stay cozy, proper care is crucial. At Jaipur Fabric, we specialize in premium-quality Dohar and blankets that are both beautiful and durable, and here’s how you can care for them.
1. Understanding Your Fabric
Different fabrics require different care. At Jaipur Fabric, our Double bed Dohars and blankets are often made from high-quality cotton, ideal for soft, breathable warmth. Always check the label to ensure you follow the right washing instructions. The most common fabric types include:Cotton Dohars: Soft, breathable, and easy to maintain.
Woolen Blankets: Thick, warm, and require delicate handling.
Synthetic Blends: Lightweight and low-maintenance.
2. Washing Tips for Cotton Dohar
Cotton is durable, but to preserve its softness and color, follow these washing tips:Use Cold Water: Wash your Dohar in cold water to prevent shrinkage and color fading.
Mild Detergent: Opt for a mild, non-bleach detergent to avoid damage to the fabric’s fibers.
Gentle Cycle: Set your washing machine to a gentle cycle to prevent unnecessary wear and tear.
Avoid Fabric Softeners: These can leave residue, which affects the breathability and softness of the cotton.
3. Washing Woolen Blankets
Woolen blankets are cozy and warm but require more care to keep them fluffy and soft:Dry Clean or Hand Wash: Most woolen blankets should be dry cleaned. However, if washing at home, hand wash with cold water and a wool-friendly detergent.
Avoid Wringing: Gently squeeze out excess water but never wring woolen blankets as this can distort their shape.
Air Dry: Lay the blanket flat on a clean, dry surface area to air dry. Avoid hanging, as this could stretch the fibers.
4. Drying Tips
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Whether cotton or wool, drying in direct sunlight can cause color fading. Dry in a shaded area with better air circulation.Low-Heat Tumble Dry: For cotton Dohars, use a low-heat setting if you prefer machine drying. Wool blankets should always be air-dried to avoid shrinkage.
5. Storage Techniques
Enough storage ensures your blankets and Dohars remain fresh and ready for use:Clean Before Storing: Always clean your blankets and Dohar before storing them for long periods. Dust, dirt, and oils can attract moths and other pests.
Use Breathable Storage Bags: Store blankets in breathable cotton or muslin bags to allow airflow and prevent mildew buildup.
Avoid Plastic Bags: Storing in plastic can trap moisture, leading to mildew and mold growth.
6. Avoid Frequent Washing
Over-washing can wear out your blankets and Dohars. For day-to-day freshness:
Air It Out: Regularly airing your blankets and Dohars can reduce odors and keep them fresh without the need for frequent washing.
Spot Clean: Address small stains immediately with spot cleaning to avoid washing the entire item.
7. Ironing and Freshening
Cotton Dohars can be lightly ironed if needed. Set the iron to a low heat and place a cloth between the iron and the Dohar to avoid direct heat contact. For woolen blankets, avoid ironing entirely to protect the fabric texture.
8. Reviving Older Blankets
If your blankets have lost their fluff over time, try these tricks:
Shake Them Out: A good shake can help fluff the fibers.
Use a Fabric Comb: For woolen blankets that have pilled, gently comb the surface to remove any fuzz.
Conclusion
Caring for your Dohar and blankets ensures that they remain a cozy and stylish part of your home for years. By following these easy tips, you can keep your bedding in top shape, whether it’s a soft cotton Dohar or a warm wool blanket. At Jaipur Fabric, we prioritize high-quality, long-lasting products, and with the right care, you can enjoy them for seasons to come.
