Tuesday’s Tip: Keeping White’s White!

Keeping White’s white! It’s that time of year again we’re digging out our white clothes and it never fail’s they get yellow/Gray and dingy after a couple wears! Here’s how I keep my Whites White! Mrs. Stewart’s Liquid Bluing! Bluing restores the sparkling Whiteness.

One of the BEST secret’s my mom told me about years ago! Super easy to use, Just mix a few drops into your water until it’s light blue, then add your white load and add again to your final rinse. (directions are on the bottle) I have a top loading Washing Machine ( I am not a fan of front loaders so I am not sure how you add to water before clothes.)  My bottle is so old, because it last forever! I would think NEW bottles have directions for front loading machines. The Bottle does have directions for hand wash, white haired dogs and swimming pools!

Above I showed you a photo of my White jeans that are 6 years old, a New Tee shirt and A white towel that is 8 years old! You can’t tell the difference! ( I did not edit photo or use any filters so you could get the true effect)

I love white, It’s Fresh, Pure and So summery! Being a mom of BOY’S it’s not easy to stay clean!  A bleach Stick, baking soda and Liquid Bluing have been my tricks for years!  

Bleach Stick helps with a quick stain, run under cold water, add stick to stain let set for seconds (as soon as stain disappear’s rinse under cold water to remove bleach.) Then wash. I wash my Whites in baking soda about 1 cup for a full load! when my whites start to yellow I then use good old Mrs. Stewart’s!

Even ALL of our bath towels are white! Shown above they stay in perfect condition using these simple to use products….See Whites don’t have to be scary!

Hope My Tuesday’s tip helps you keep your White’s Clean! OX, D’Arcy
