Remove your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bagsoflove.co.uk\/photo-cushions\">personalised cushion<\/a>\/pillow cover and replace it with a laundry bag or plain white cover ensuring that all open ends are sealed in order to prevent a feathery disaster. Put two cushions at a time for wash to keep the load even.<\/li><li>Now I am guessing you have a washing machine at home , else you can always go to a launderette. Choose the following settings &#8211; \u2018<strong>Delicate<\/strong>\u2019 cycle at <strong>30<sup>\u00b0<\/sup>C,<\/strong> rinse twice in order to make sure the detergent is removed thoroughly and spin twice to remove as much water from the feathers as possible.\u00a0It is advisable to add a few towels along with the cushion to keep the machine running smoothly.<\/li><li>Once the washing is complete, fluff the cushions before putting it into the dryer.<\/li><li>Set the dryer at <strong>low\/medium<\/strong> heat \u00a0and place 2\/3 tennis balls in the dryer to make the cushions fluffy and prevent the feathers from clumping as they dry.<\/li><li>Stop the dryer every 15 minutes to fluff the cushions.<\/li><li>Living in the UK, it can be hard to get a glimpse of the sun. Therefore, using a dryer would be more effective than leaving it outdoors to dry.<\/li><li>But if you are short of a dryer you can opt to leave the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bagsoflove.co.uk\/photo-cushions\">photo cushion<\/a> outdoors or in an airing cupboard which may take longer than a day to dry especially in winters. Alternatively, the next best option would be to leave it on a sheet next to the radiators.<\/li><li>Lastly, make sure the feathers are dry before use as damp feathers can smell like mildew.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The guide is as simple as it gets with washing feather pillows.
