How to Wash a Weighted Blanket - Real Simple

Weighted blankets are a great way to improve your sleep and reduce stress, but they require proper care to maintain their quality and effectiveness. Washing a weighted blanket can be a bit tricky due to its weight and size. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps on how to wash a weighted blanket properly.

Check the care label

Before washing your weighted blanket, make sure to check the care label to determine the appropriate washing method. Some blankets may be machine-washable, while others require handwashing or dry cleaning. Follow the care label instructions to avoid damaging the blanket.

Pre-treat any stains

If there are any stains or spots on your weighted blanket, pre-treat them before washing. Apply a small amount of stain remover or laundry detergent directly to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the stain, and rinse it with cold water.

Use a gentle detergent

When washing a weighted blanket, it's essential to use a gentle detergent that won't damage the fabric or affect the weight of the blanket. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as they can damage the fibers and reduce the effectiveness of the blanket. Instead, use a mild detergent that is specifically designed for delicate fabrics.

Wash in a large washing machine

If your weighted blanket is machine-washable, use a large washing machine that can accommodate its weight and size. Make sure to wash the blanket on a gentle cycle with cold water to avoid shrinking or damaging the fabric.

Dry the blanket properly

After washing the blanket, it's crucial to dry it properly to avoid mold and mildew growth. You can air-dry the blanket by laying it flat on a clean surface, or you can tumble dry it on low heat. If you're using a dryer, add a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help distribute the weight evenly and fluff the blanket.

Store the blanket properly

Once the blanket is dry, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure to avoid folding or compressing the blanket for long periods, as it can affect the weight distribution and reduce its effectiveness. In conclusion, washing a weighted blanket requires a bit of extra care, but it's worth the effort to maintain its quality and effectiveness. By following these steps, you can ensure that your weighted blanket stays clean, comfortable, and long-lasting. Read the full article

Finished the Ford jammies figure of the pair, off this delightful design. Ford was certainly more finicky then Bill (especially the fucking GLASSES); Bill's post can be seen here. I also decided to hand make a candle for Ford's candle holder by dipping a wick into melted wax until the desired thickness, even if I know that I'll never likely light it due to it most certainly likely to burn the figure itself... That's why it looks wonky.

As always with Tumblr, click to see better quality photos. Very thrilled to have them both hanging out on my desk; a photo of them in their now natural habitat, plus more photos below the cut! I'll likely also do a process post for Ford since there are more photos for him... (Plus here's my master post of figures!)

Another plate I made out of air dry clay, hand painted with acrylics of our wonderful cats Ozzy (right) and Todd (left). Now I just need to make one for my sister's cats (Bubsy and Mina)!

✨I finished it✨

The Lighthouse and the Kraken, my silly little idea for something to do with a damaged ceramic lighthouse I had that turned into one of the most labour intense art projects I've ever done. I poured so many hours and love into this thing, and posting the progress on here and having you guys cheering it on kept me motivated to see it through❤️ (even when I had to take a break for a few weeks because my shoulder got worn out from working on it)

More closeups and a video under the cut ❤️

Check out #pennybunpirate's lighthouse for all the progress posts if you're interested 🙃

Thank you for following along, it's been a fun ride❤️
