Does anyone know if I can wash the vertical blinds in the conseratory in the washing machine. The thought of doing them by hand makes me want to cry! Was thinking of trying one on a delicates watch....any thoughts.
Off to have a bath as i'm filthy and I want to claim the first bath, lol!
Sorry to post and run but not having much time to read at the moment. Speak soon and hugs to everyone xx
ETA - just found a thread on washing blinds...half say washing machine and half say don't. I'm going to risk one of them and see what happens xx
I did my Kitchen ones in the machine and they frayed on the sides and came out a tangled mess, so did the others in the bath all I did was add a small amount of washing powder to the water left them to soak then soaked in just water and hung them on the line and they came up lovely.
