Wash before storage

Store clean bedding so body oils and stains do not sit for long periods.

Dry completely

Any retained moisture can create odor or mildew risk.

Fold loosely

Avoid excessively sharp creases and do not crush silk under heavy objects.

Choose a clean breathable space

Keep bedding away from damp locations, direct sun and snag hazards.

Recheck before use

Inspect long-stored bedding for odor, moisture or damage before putting it back on the bed.
