How does dry cleaning work anyway and is it reall superior?
Without water, a dry cleaning service removes stains and grime from textile materials using a solvent, usually perchloroethylene. The first step in the procedure is the pretreatment of the stains, followed by immersion in the solvent to dissolve grease and oils efficiently. After that, the clothes are dried and ironed to regain their original appearance and shape. Dry cleaning is frequently recommended for delicate items that shrink or lose colour when exposed to water. Although it could work better on some fabrics and stains—like oil-based stains—it's not necessarily required for every article of clothing.
Tumblr media
However, using a dry cleaning service guarantees complete cleaning and upkeep without compromising fabric integrity for individuals looking for professional care and preservation of their apparel.

Timeline: Part 7 - October 2017
For earlier timeline posts: click here or here.
There are three installments of the "Meghan's PR Timeline" today, which will see us finish out 2017: October 2017, November 2017, and December 2017.
One particularly interesting observation about this period of time is that from mid-October to mid-November, there are actually whole days without a single item or piece about Meghan. It's very strange because from about the end of April 2017 to the end of September 2017, we were being bombarded DAILY by stories about Meghan.
Is the missing coverage because those pages, stories, and articles were scrubbed in 2018/2019 when Meghan's PR was cleaning up her image?
Did Meghan finally get the ring in early October and no longer needed her PR to pressure Harry and force him to propose?
Or is it the quiet before the storm (i.e., the engagement announcement)? Meghan decided to drop coverage to get more bang when the engagement was announced?
10/1/2017: Toronto Invictus Games Closing Ceremony. Meghan, Doria, Jess, and Markus arrive early and are in a box. Meghan arrives first and is caught directing photographers where to go and what angles to use. Harry arrives later. Meghan leaks that Harry and Doria met at the closing ceremony and they get along fabulously.
(For additional context timeline-wise: 10/1/17 is the Route 19 Harvest Festival shooting in Las Vegas)
10/2/2017: Harry returns to London via Heathrow Airport and it's listed in the Court Circular. Meghan teases an engagement to E News and says that her friends have become Harry's family.
10/3/2017: Meghan merches her shoes from a September 2017 papwalk. She also tells Elle Magazine that she and Harry are unofficially engaged, and everyone knows.
10/4/2017: Meghan modernizes the monarchy if she marries Harry. Charles is in Malta.
10/5/2017: Ronan Farrow's Weinstein expose is published by The New York Times. Meghan merches her Invictus Games clothing - Opening Ceremony Outfit, Closing Ceremony Coat.
10/6/2017: Carole Middleton and Doria Ragland are the same.
10/7/2017: Charles's letter to Tony Blair about the hunting ban is published.
October 7th is the first day with no Meghan stories or Harkle coverage since early summer.
10/8/2017: Meghan has moved to London and is being driven by a royal chauffeur.
10/9/2017: Harry's ex Cressida makes the news for being connected to Harvey Weinstein. Jess Mulroney sources an "all about Meghan's bestie, Jess" story.
10/10/2017: Meghan's PR takes a dig at William and Kate, asking why they never hold hands. Kate makes her first public appearance since announcing her third pregnancy, implying that she is on the mend from HG.
10/11/2017: Meghan's 2011 film, Dysfunctional Friends, resurfaces. Her character is a photographer for male underwear models. Meghan tries to be a fashion influencer, gets linked to Julia Roberts, Naomi Watts, and Greta Lee as a major "power dresser". She also merches the nail polish she might wear for the wedding and/or the engagement announcement.
Meanwhile, Harry attends the 100 Women in Finance Gala Dinner. Kate's aide, Rebecca Deacon, receives the Royal Victorian Order. Buckingham Palace announces that Charles will lay wreaths at the Cenotaph for The Queen during the Remembrance Sunday service, and The Queen returns to London, ending her summer Balmoral haloriday.
10/12/2017: The Queen's first day back in London/work following summer holidays. Harry has #1 sexiest celebrity beard. (No, they're not talking about Meghan. They mean the actual hair on his face.)
10/13/2017: Meghan and Harry leak that they're house-hunting in the Cotswolds for a marital home and merch a few properties in the Daily Mail. Meghan also teases wedding speculation and Soho Farmhouse's newest financial report reveals that they lost $34.48 million in 2017 (hence the Harkle sponcon throughout 2018)
10/14/2017: Royals living in the US - forgotten Spencer cousins who call the American Pacific Northwest home.
10/15/2017: Meghan confirms that she is finished with Suits when Season 7 wraps in November. #MeToo movement begins and James Middleton, Donna Air split is revealed.
10/16/2017: Meghan leaks that she and Harry are already engaged but won't announce it until Suits filming has ended. Harry attends the WellChild Awards. Also, Harry tells people that he doesn't want a formal pageanty Cambridge-like wedding.
Meanwhile, Harry accompanies William and Kate to an engagement celebrating the release of Paddington 2.
10/17/2017: No new Meghan or Harkle stories, but Eugenie is papped in Los Angeles; William and Kate announce the baby is due in April; and Camilla gives a landmark speech on osteoporosis.
10/18/2017: Meghan leaks to the Daily Mail that she and Harry had tea with The Queen at Buckingham Palace on October 12th, and it's the first time Meghan met Her Majesty.
Note: This version of events contradicting Harry's claim in Spare that Meghan met The Queen for the first time on Sunday at the Royal Lodge while visiting the Yorks. October 12th is a Wednesday.
10/19/2017: Meghan teases Harry's proposal plan.
10/20/2017: Meghan's copycatting of Diana's outfits and behavior finally gets noticed. Meghan hints about etiquette lessons and teases the engagement.

10/22/2017: No new Meghan or Harkle stories.

10/24/2017: Meghan makes a dig at Kate - why she never wears red nail polish.
10/25/2017: Meghan merches her voice (perhaps this is when she starts negotiating for a Disney documentary voiceover gig...).
10/26/2017: DailyMailTV discusses Meghan's ancestry. Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan leak that:
Harry has had a crush on Meghan since 2015 when he saw her on Suits and he did tell friends back then that she was his ideal woman.
KP aides have been instructed to begin wedding planning and are reviewing dates.
The Cambridges announced Kate's pregnancy early because protocol requires the wedding can't take place until after the baby is born.

10/28/2017: Meghan and Harry are actually related! They're distant cousins.

A Study in Scarlet: Light in the Darkness
Yes, I know I'm rather behind at this point.
Euston is the station you would use for a trip to Liverpool; from there, ocean liners could take you to the United States or indeed many other places. Transatlantic passenger service ceased in 1973, but cruise ships still operate from there and a floating dock structure was built in 2007 to service today's huge vessels.
The "Boots" was the lowest-ranking servant whose main job was to clean boots and shoes. He may have done other duties as a hall boy in smaller households.
The modern-day Greater London area, which includes a good many places not in London at the time politically, had a population of 4.7 million people in the 1881 census, freely available online. The City of Westminster, where Baker Street is, had 513,000 residents and Tower Hamlets, which covers most of the East End 560,000. In 2021, they were around 204,000 and 310,000. My home borough of Havering had merely 16,000 and in 2021 around 262,000.
The old D-shaped handcuffs were not easy to put on a prisoner who was struggling, hence Holmes having a modern-style of spring handcuffs.

Lady Whistledown Returns: Chapter 5
Tumblr media
Kidnappings are generally frowned upon, but being a hostage is the strangest mix of tension, boredom, and mischief. Points will be won and lost…but who will win the game?
Need to catch up? Find previous chapters and works on AO3.
This chapter has no content warnings.
When the lid of the packing crate was next wrenched free, it was full dark, with only a few candles illuminating a grossly familiar room. A pair of footmen stood on either side of the single door and another pair guarded the window. These footmen were not the nervous, young men of eleven or twelve who were just beginning their training and careers in palace service, either. All of them were in their early thirties, if Colin was any judge, and one of them looked as though he would not be out of place in the boxing ring, squaring off against Mondrich. At a guess, his escape attempts on the road had been reported and any attempts he might make here were being preempted. 
And he desperately wanted to make an escape from this room. 
Even by candlelight, he knew it. Could still see red curls matted down with sweat spread across a white pillow and the silver flash of knife as it cut into pale flesh. Could still hear his name screamed in pain and terror. Could still feel his chest constrict as he silently begged Pen to breathe. Holding him in the room in which he had nearly lost Pen was a particular cruelty, and one he did not appreciate. 
As his heart beat a tattoo into his rib cage and his breath came hard and short, Colin wiped his suddenly sweaty palms on his trousers. They came away gritty and grimy, and he grimaced. “What I wouldn’t give for a bath and a change of clothes,” he ground out. 
A fifth footman—this one a more traditional age, the boy was fourteen if he was a day—emerged from the shadows to yank the bellpull. When a maid appeared at the door a few minutes later, there was a hushed exchange, followed about three quarters of an hour later by a big copper tub, kettles of hot water, and nondescript but clean clothing. There was even a tray with a sort of one-course dinner on it. 
That was when Colin realized that he had spent the intervening time sitting ingloriously in the packing crate, desperately trying to control his breathing and racing heart, and wishing with every fiber of his being not to come in contact with this room. He hadn’t even noticed the time elapse, but now he had either to get out of the packing crate or commit to curling into a ball inside it until someone retrieved him.
Ultimately, it was no manly fortitude or particular strength of heart that made Colin climb out of the box. He desperately wished it had been, and he would almost certainly tell Anthony, Benedict, Eloise and Gregory that he had climbed out as a show of strength. But Penelope would know and understand that the real goad that got him out of that crate was a base but insurmountably strong desire to feel clean again. He had been wearing the same suit of clothes for days, and the escape attempts had not been kind to them. The miasma of his own perspiration and London’s humidity in the crate had only added to the intolerability of the layers of dirt he felt buried beneath.
That didn’t mean he wasn’t trembling as he rose, swung himself out of the crate, and began to disrobe.
Distracted by his own distress, Colin barely noted the unusually high sides of the copper tub and completely failed to see the small stepstool that would have prevented the need to bear down on the side with all his weight to swing a leg over the edge. Not minding his strength and the physics involved in copper tub construction meant that Colin tipped the tub top over teakettle, sending steaming water over his lower half and flooding the room. The footmen all yelped and somewhat inelegantly hopped from foot to foot in vain attempts to stop their shoes and stockings from being utterly ruined. The young footman by the bell pull yanked it repeatedly, so hard that it snapped in his hands.
Colin’s instinct to immediately apologize and help clean up the mess was suddenly quashed by utter fury. He would not apologize for the queen’s mind games being effective, and he would not sit meekly by as little more than a pawn. Summoning his best impressions of Cressida Cowper and Honoria Holroyd, nee Smythe-Smith, he said, “My heavens, how clumsy of me. I cannot imagine how I should have been so careless. We shall have to have another bath drawn up, of course, I cannot possibly be expected to endure this sort of deprivation!”
Swinging his arm for dramatic emphasis, Colin made sure to catch the edge of the tray of food, sending it spinning across the room in a crash of shattering crockery. That felt good. The thought was nearly a snarl in Colin’s head, but he made sure that his voice maintained the slightly higher-pitched, drawling, whiney affect that grated his teeth when debutantes deployed it.
“Oh lord and now we shall need a new—and much larger—tray of food before I waste utterly away from hunger. Surely such privation falls into the realm of cruel and unusual treatment, and I may in fact faint!” The hand dramatically thrown to his forehead covered the sharp assessment Colin made of the footmen’s reactions. The boy worried him not at all, but the bruisers’ reactions would make or break a suspicion he held. To a man, they were red-faced and clench-fisted, but none of them had moved to check him. Interesting, he thought. One more test.
Lifting the sodden heap that used to be the clean trousers between two fingers, Colin flung them towards the man who would have looked more at home in a boxing ring and allowed a shrill note to slide into his voice. “Would you look at these? I cannot possibly put them on before my new bath is drawn. Whatever shall I wear? Or am I to simply catch my death of consumption from exposure and cold?” Intending to rip down the curtains over the window the bruiser was guarding, Colin strode toward them. The fist that connected with his jaw made him see stars for a moment.
“No going near the window,” grunted the fist’s owner, looking smugly satisfied at the opportunity to use his brawn.
“Then I shall have your coat and breeches, man! And quickly too, imagine the damage to my modesty and reputation this situation is causing!” Beyond wishing to be maximally irritating, Colin could not bring himself to pull the sheets off the bed in the room to wrap up in. He might break if he had to do that.
The footman grunted derisively, but caught the eye of his companion at the window and jerked his head in fashion that clearly said, “Well, go on, then.” The other man’s face went redder than any beet Colin had ever seen in his life, but began to grudgingly shrug out of his coat.
“Absolutely not!” shrieked Colin, in an impersonation of Daphne that was so on point that had the duchess been in the room, Colin would have expected a sisterly slap. “You cannot imagine that I would fit into his coat! I shall have yours or I shall have nothing at all!” To drive home his point, Colin squared up to the man, feed just slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, fist planted firmly on hips, and chest puffed out in an exaggerated impression of a furious Anthony.
As the lead footman glared at Colin, the sound of a door opening followed by the screeches of what sounded like an army of maids at the sight of Colin’s backside added to a cacophony that Colin was genuinely surprised hadn’t already summoned an army of other servants and marines. The farcical nature of the situation made Colin grin despite himself. At the grin, the bruiser blinked, surrendering the battle nearly by accident. The fury in his eyes when he realized promised that he would make Colin pay when the time came.
“What in the name of God is going on here?” Glancing over his shoulder, Colin was shocked that the thundering evocation had come from Brimsley, a man renowned amongst the ton for his ability to leverage near-silent disdain to command a room. He prodded the sodden carpet with the toe of his shoe, producing a distinctive squish sound. A look of sheer distaste crossed his face as he took in the sopping wet floor, food, and crockery shards. Standing beside Brimsley behind a gaggle of red-faced, silently giggling maids was Worth, with one hand over his face to hide what Colin would have bet Aubrey Hall was a grin.
Brimsley’s look of disgust deepened when he glanced at Worth, but rather than excoriate Colin for his behavior, Brimsley simply ordered the maids to redraw the bath, find another set of clothing, and replace the food tray. He also sent the young footman running for additional maids to get the room put to rights before taking up a position by the door to supervise. Worth actually winked at Colin before quietly disappearing from the room.
The look that Brimsley subsequently gave Colin ought to have been a head-to-toe assessment, but it managed to remain above Colin’s neck. “May I recommend the sheets on the bed, while we wait, Mr. Bridgerton?” he asked, settling back into the quietly disdainful tone with which the entire ton was familiar.
The immediate descent of his stomach into his toes at that thought distracted Colin from the goosebumps covering his body as the water cooled on his skin.
“You may not,” drawled Colin, affecting Benedict’s casually unbothered artist mood. “However, you may light the fire.”
“I think not, Mr. Bridgerton,” said Brimsley. “I should hate to think what your sudden attack of clumsiness might develop into if we include fire in the picture.”
Colin offered Brimsley his most formal leg in response before reclining across a settee, with a strategically placed pillow to prevent the maids from collapsing from the vapors. Then, he belted his favorite bawdy German drinking songs. Certainly the maids did not speak the language, but a couple of the footmen’s mouths twitched, and Brimsley’s look of disdain deepened.
When the tub was newly filled and the maids dismissed, Colin switched to French drinking songs, and his voice resonated and bounced off the tub, echoing through the hallways at a truly insupportable hour. Within about fifteen minutes, pages from across the wing of the palace began filing through the room—ineffectually hiding their giggles at the English bawdy songs that Colin had been roundly scolded by his mother for daring to quietly whisper-sing where there was possibility that his nephews would hear them—to convey complaints of other denizens, including the princes and princesses.
Colin was particularly pleased with himself as he climbed from the tub, dressed, and proceeded to inhale the loaded tray that had been left for him. Brimsley, apparently tired of babysitting, departed, taking the army of maids, pages, and extra footmen from the room. Satiated, warm, and bored, Colin proceeded to tip the empty tub over, and banged the bottom like a drum to herald the rising sun. All four of his minders clapped hands over their ears, but otherwise moved not at all to check him.
Before Colin was bored enough to try different drum patterns, the door burst open.
Framed in the doorway was Queen Charlotte, hair still wrapped, lacking any jewels or makeup, and simply dressed in a loose, clearly well-loved banyan. “What on earth do you imagine you are about?” she snapped.
Colin stopped banging on the tub. “The rope on the bellpull snapped. However else was I to inform you that I require another meal? Although I must say, I’m shocked that you would greet a distinguished guest in such a state of undress. How very uncouth and continental of you.”
“You dare speak that way to me?” snarled Charlotte. 
Colin grinned. Grinning was a fairly common phenomenon for him, and his family could and often did identify the various grins with startling accuracy. However, the expression on his face now was a combination of sheer smugness and predatory glee that would have had Violet up nights worrying for a week, Eloise begging to be allowed in on the mischief, and Anthony reaching for the whiskey. Some of his childhood tutors would have recognized the expression. To a man, they had all seen it right after Colin found a mischief-friendly loophole in something they had said. 
“I not only dare, I revel in speaking to you and everyone else who walks through the door in such a manner. And I must graciously thank Your Majesty for the privilege, because you have made me—” Colin draped himself across a settee with languorous insouciance before casually throwing his feet up on a pouf— “untouchable.” Interlacing his fingers behind his head, Colin gestured dismissively with the toe of his boot. “Now be a dear and see about finding me a meal worth eating.”
Charlotte’s eyes narrowed, but she held herself as still as a marble statue for a long moment, considering. “You are correct, Mr. Bridgerton. For the moment you are untouchable. But if I may offer you a word of advice? I should consider what happens to you–and your increasingly sprawling family–if your faith in your wife is misplaced. After all, she has proven famously unable to restrain herself where her Lady Whistledown impulses are concerned.” 
Still lazily draped over the furniture, Colin snorted. “You never gave Penelope the credit she deserved.”
“And you seem to forget that she exposed young Miss Thompson’s pregnancy to stop you from marrying her, and dragged Miss Eloise’s name through the mud, to the possible ruination of your sister and your family. I see all of your wife, Mr. Bridgerton, not just the parts you fell in love with.”
“Am I getting fed or not?” snapped Colin, sitting upright and glaring at the woman who had orchestrated his kidnapping and imprisonment. 
Charlotte actually laughed. “I would not dream of starving the Bridgerton known for his prodigious appetite. Especially not after I have scored a point.” She turned on her heel and strode from the room without giving him time to answer. 
Rising, Colin paced the room for a few moments before leaning into a wall far enough away from the door or window to prevent his minders from objecting, forehead resting against his forearm. He had nothing but faith in Pen, despite the queen’s attempts to raise doubts in him. Anthony would be able to plan a way to see him released, and he and Pen could plan their next steps together. She and Anthony would find a way to get him released. He had no doubts about his wife’s and older brother’s abilities. And the sooner Pen was back in his arms, the better.

CHARACTER INFORMATION
Name: Dahlia Valentine Age: 27 (Looking) / 29 Gender: Cisgender Female Pronouns: She/Her/Herself Species: Vampire Face claim: Anya Taylor-Joy Character Occupation: Waitress at Daisy's Den & Freelance Photographer Neighbourhood of residence: The Brewery Affiliation: Unaffiliated Length of stay in Holloway: One year
CHARACTER SUMMARY
There is something odd about Dahlia Valentine. You hear her name and off the bat you just know she's a little different than everyone else, like she was plucked out of the wrong century. Those in Holloway see her and whisper, just as all small towns do, of the pretty girl with the watery eyes and the way she wears her attitude like a too-big coat, but they always leave out the most important parts of her. Born to a set of artistic, altruistic, and aloof parents, she too was destined to follow in their footsteps somehow. A sculptor like her father, a violinist like her mother, it didn't matter, it was practically written in the stars. Though she never really tried to fit into any mold - worked hard to pass her classes with flying colors and graduating with honors simply to get out of the stifling grip of private boarding school education - the way she could capture the world through a lens was undeniable. It helped that she found her own sort of confidence and intuition in it as well, excelling in taking portraits, offering another angle, a new perspective, a brighter side of things for those who stepped in her line of sight. She was lovely in all manners, from the way she relaxed people to how she always had some wise and philosophical quote tucked away for just the right moment. That drive and love, for both photography and people, took her all around the world starting at the prime age of eighteen, encouraged by her parents money and their desire for her to make a lasting mark on the world just as they had. From Tokyo to Brazil to Scotland, Dahlia spent years seeing just what it had to offer - the majesty and mystery, culture and creativity, and all of the darkness in between.
London was where the world was ripped away from her. She had settled there at twenty-seven. Her photography career was at an all-time high, her passport filled to the brim with locations and stamps to show that she had the experience, knowledge, and guts to cement herself in the history books. People knew her name, knew her face, knew her talent. She was doing just what destiny had planned, even opened up a studio to sell her services and photographs to those who had an eye for the arts. When a man had walked in at twilight, just as she was closing up for the evening, she had thought him just another socialite or aristocrat who wanted something to decorate his third vacation home. She had offered him her sweetest smiles and most formal tones, talked at length about her process and her favorite captures from years past. She thought it was just a sale. She didn't even fully commit his face to memory because she thought it so inconsequential. But this stranger in the nice shoes wasn't there for the art. He was there for her. It was a deliberate, purposeful act. It was clean. He killed her, tore into her throat, left her bloodless and on the cusp of darkness, and then brought her back. Like he'd done it a hundred times before. And then he just left her, on the proverbial cutting room floor, sweat-drenched and sticky with her own death. As if all he had wanted to do was destroy pretty things.
News of Holloway had come to her in the same way much of the other things in her life did - like fate and destiny, like a red string wrapped around her wrist. It was a place she was hearing about more and more, as her nights were getting longer and her days were getting shorter, as her wardrobe shifted into darker and more conservative colors, as her teeth began to hurt and a hunger churned her stomach like never before. A refuge, a neutral ground, a place to learn more of what she had become. So, she packed all she could, sold the rest, left her studio to an old friend, and for one last time, got a passport stamp, to America. Landing in the States and finding her way to Holloway felt like the ultimate stake in the chest. It felt like she had to start all over again, now. It was real. Getting a job as a waitress at a wine bar, taking photographs only when she could and under a pseudonym, renting her first one-bedroom flat all on her own. She was too soft for all of it, all of the change, having to cut herself off from the world she had spent so much time building and loving. Her tenderness and love of art had to be shelved for simple survival. It made her sad, more than anything, but she didn't want anyone to see her as prey. Not again. So she tries to cover it with attitude, snide comments and sharp words, coming off like a bratty teenager at best and a petulant rich girl at worst. But she doesn't care. As long as she is seen as someone to avoid, to fear, she will continue baring her teeth and flashing her fangs at any who dare cross her, even if it puts her fresh identity at risk.

through high school sevket kept mostly to himself. he enjoyed spending time in the library and loved spending time with evie. evie and him had became the best of friends in grade school and all through high school he had grown closer and closer to the female she truly was really the only one he had confided in. when he was a freshman his fathers work had slowed down which causes the family to hit even harder times. this resulted in sevket spending a lot more time with evie from time to time to avoid the fighting it caused at home. when tenth grade rolled around his fathers business had picked up and was better than ever. the fighting between his parents had stopped or at least he had thought.
a slow burn love sev thought he had with evie and the two had finally started dating his junior year. he had felt like everything in his life was going perfect. yet over the years the two had dated something had just felt off.. sure savket had loved evie however it didnt feel like that romantic type of love. yet he clung to it.
when sev had turned 18 and graduated his father and mother had broke the news that they were getting a divorce. sevket world was crushed thinking his family had this perfect marriage that could survive anything. it was a slap to the face but it only made sev cling to the perfect happy imagine of what a marriage should be. upon graduating despite that odd feeling with ev he instantly started bothering her her to marry him. he was determined to prove to his parents that love could concur all and nothing would break up true love. yet true intimate love was certainly something that ev and sevket were missing. sev ignored it and continued on with the engagement even though it certainly felt like more two friends living together.
sevket had skipped out on college and worked along side with his father with his handyman business. by ev's sophomore year of college that perfect idea of marraige had fallen apart with his fiancée' . when she had confessed that she had cheated sevket was still persistent on making it work. yet as the two had tried to work through it all it had just made more sense that there never was romantic love within their partnership. it never was truly anything slowburn. evie was his soulmate.. but she was his soulmate in a strictly platonic way. of course he had been a little upset she had cheated only because she hadnt talk to him first he had understood and could never hate or blame the woman. she was still perfect in his eyes and would always be.
as she left for london he had focused on his own life. gym and work became his life. eventually he was able to open up his own handyman service and became the biggest "do it all" kind of guy around town. were having issues with your sink pipes.. sevket could fix them.. needing your pool cleaned.. sevket would clean it. a man with a big heart and it paid off because his own business had finally took off. now at 32 the man has moved both his parents into his house in montara and now takes care of them when needed.

The Ultimate Guide to Maintaining Carpets Between Professional Cleanings
The Ultimate Guide to Maintaining Carpets Between Professional Cleanings
Carpets are a cornerstone of cozy and stylish homes, but they require consistent care to retain their beauty and functionality. While professional cleaning is essential, adopting effective maintenance habits in between can make a world of difference. This guide explores practical tips to keep your carpets looking their best, with a focus on homes in Harrow. Whether you’re looking for tips on vacuuming, spot cleaning, or avoiding damaging practices, this guide has you covered. For more insights, visit Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning, your trusted partner for carpet cleaning services in Harrow.
Regular Vacuuming: The Foundation of Clean Carpets
Vacuuming isn’t just about appearances—it’s essential for extending the life of your carpets. Dust, dirt, and allergens settle into carpet fibers daily, causing them to break down over time. Aim to vacuum high-traffic areas at least twice a week and less-used spaces weekly. Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter for optimal performance, especially if you have pets or allergies.
Pro tip: Adjust your vacuum’s height setting to suit the carpet pile and prevent damage. For a thorough cleaning routine, don’t forget to clean your vacuum filters regularly. Consistent vacuuming is a cornerstone of any effective carpet cleaning regimen, especially in busy homes. Learn more about maintaining carpets at Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning.
Spot Cleaning: Act Fast
Accidents happen, but the key to preventing stains is immediate action. When spills occur, blot the liquid gently with a clean cloth—never rub, as this can spread the stain. Use a mild detergent or an eco-friendly carpet cleaner designed for spot treatments. For example, a mixture of white vinegar and water can work wonders on coffee stains.
For grease stains, sprinkle baking soda over the affected area, let it sit for a few minutes, and vacuum it up before applying a cleaning solution. Always test any cleaner on a small, hidden area to ensure it doesn’t discolor your carpet. For stubborn stains or when DIY methods fall short, consult professional carpet cleaning services in Harrow like Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning.
Protecting Carpets From Common Hazards
Shoes Off Policy: Shoes carry dirt, grime, and tiny particles that can wear down carpet fibers. Encourage family and guests to remove their shoes before walking on carpets.
Furniture Protection: Use furniture pads to prevent heavy pieces from leaving permanent dents or damaging the carpet. Rearranging furniture occasionally can also reduce wear in specific areas.
Regular Maintenance: Trim pet nails to avoid snags and place doormats at entryways to trap dirt before it reaches your carpets.
Implementing these simple steps can significantly reduce wear and tear, ensuring your carpets remain vibrant for years to come. For more tips on long-term carpet care, rely on experts like Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning offering top-notch carpet cleaning services in London.
Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solutions for Harrow Homes
Harrow homeowners increasingly prefer sustainable and non-toxic cleaning products to protect their families and the environment. Look for brands offering biodegradable, plant-based formulas free of harsh chemicals. Products like Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds or ECOS Carpet Shampoo are excellent choices.
For DIY enthusiasts, mix equal parts water and white vinegar with a few drops of essential oil for a natural carpet cleaner. Baking soda also doubles as an odor neutralizer—sprinkle it over your carpet, let it sit for 15 minutes, and vacuum thoroughly. For professional carpet cleaning in Harrow, consider services that use eco-friendly solutions, like Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning.
Addressing Odors: Keeping Carpets Fresh
Lingering odors in carpets can be unpleasant, especially in homes with pets. Regularly sprinkle baking soda over your carpets, leave it overnight, and vacuum the next day for a fresh-smelling home. For a deeper clean, steam cleaning is highly effective in removing embedded odors.
Professional cleaners also offer deodorizing treatments that are safe and long-lasting. If you’re in need of carpet cleaning services in London, companies like Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning can help eliminate tough odors while restoring your carpets’ freshness.
Professional Cleaning: When and Why
Even with diligent maintenance, professional cleaning is essential every 12-18 months. High-traffic households or those with pets may require more frequent visits. Professional cleaners use advanced techniques like hot water extraction to deep clean carpets, removing dirt and bacteria that regular vacuuming can’t reach.
Choosing a trusted provider for carpet cleaning London services ensures your carpets are treated with care. Harrow residents can rely on Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning for exceptional results tailored to their specific needs.
Preventative Measures for Long-Term Care
Area Rugs and Runners: Use these in high-traffic zones to protect underlying carpets from excessive wear.
UV Protection: Direct sunlight can fade carpet colors over time. Use curtains or UV-blocking window films to preserve your carpet’s vibrancy.
Regular Inspections: Look for signs of damage, such as fraying or discoloration, and address them promptly to avoid further deterioration.
These preventative steps, combined with professional carpet cleaning services in Harrow, can significantly extend your carpets' lifespan.
Final Thoughts
Maintaining carpets between professional cleanings doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Regular vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning, and adopting smart habits can keep your carpets looking their best. Additionally, opting for eco-friendly solutions and scheduling professional services as needed ensures your carpets remain a source of comfort and beauty in your home.
For reliable carpet cleaning in Harrow, trust Shine Plus Carpet Cleaning. They offer comprehensive services that meet the unique needs of homes across Harrow and London. Follow these tips, and your carpets will thank you for years to come!

10 Things You Didn’t Know About Dry Cleaning
Tumblr media
When everybody says ‘dry cleaning,’ what exactly do they mean? While it is generally understood that no water is used, liquid chemical solvents are used. That means it is not a completely dry process. Delicate dresses would require such a treatment free from water. Care labels on a majority of dresses indicate the sort of safe washing, drying, and ironing necessary. In case of doubt or amidst very busy professional lives, it is a good idea to get expert help from the professionals at Dry Cleaning Services near me. 
Fascinating Myths and Truths of Dry Cleaning
1. Prime Laundry carries out all kinds of dress-related tasks that include dry and wet cleaning and expert ironing.

They know the truth about many kinds of fabrics and their care.  Restoration experts, get help with damaged carpets and upholstery. Dealing with attire, many dry cleaners offer alteration and repair services for dresses. In addition, they may help with shoe repairs too, all conveniently together under a single roof. 
2. Now that technology has speeded up communication and transport, Same-day dry cleaning near me seems very attractive. Free doorstep collection and delivery on the same day is a wonderful service indeed. Customers receive the protection of Consumer Rights too if problems arise. Besides, dry cleaning is not restricted to dresses alone. Scarves and rugs, pillow covers and curtains, linen, purses, furs, and boots can all be dry cleaned and the better ones deserve such attention.  
3. While dry cleaning has existed for as long as we can remember, what are its origins in Europe? While that is a mystery, it is commonly thought that dry cleaning was a chance discovery. In 1825, a maid happened to drop turpentine from a lamp on a tablecloth and noticed that the stains got very clean! Just imagine what a great difference that chance event made to the millions of dry cleaners down the ages. Jean Baptiste Jolly used the cleaning procedure. Thomas Jennings got a patent for dry cleaning. In the Middle Ages, people used urine for cleaning grease.
4. Booming Dry Cleaning Services London: Stats indicate that the dry cleaning and other cleaning services combined in the UK in 2024 have reached 1.5 billion pounds. In the USA, the dry-cleaning industry has reached a mighty 8.3 billion dollars. Globally, the dry-cleaning industry is constantly growing with over-busy people having little time to spend on private washing and ironing. 
5. Dry cleaning special effects of presentation: Going beyond cleanliness and hygiene, the magical wrinkle-free smart crisply ironed look has its secrets. Rema Dri-Vac invented an air vacuum to help achieve a flawless look. 
6. Laundromat does not offer dry cleaning: While dry cleaning does not use water, a laundromat washes and dries clothes the traditional way.  Workwear and school uniforms may be washed, dried, and ironed in traditional ways with household machines. Dry cleaning is the task of the specialist. Care labels indicate what needs to be done appropriately. 
7. Timely Quality Dry-cleaning delivery is the result of long expertise and experience. Advanced machines and eco-friendly non-toxic detergents make the task of Planet Earth appropriate. Why do women’s dresses usually cost more to dry clean as compared to masculine clothing? Female dresses do carry more designs and decorations that are delicate and easily damaged. Usually, the front of the dress carries a range of designs, perhaps in several shades. Requiring more diligent care by workers to avoid damage or breakage, the costs are usually higher. 
8. An age of advanced dry cleaning High-efficiency dry cleaning equipment is now the norm, faster and better. Air vacuums were the beginning and a diverse variety of equipment results in exceptional cleaning and intimate perfection like in big business circles. As in every sphere, technology marches on to greater heights than ever before. 
9. Dry cleaning near me can do wet cleaning Dry cleaning solvents are harsh in comparison to gentler wet cleans that use biodegradable detergents. Since wool, silk, and rayon cannot tolerate dry cleaning, they need water washing. 
10. Check out care labels again Follow the safe policy with exquisite dresses and follow the care label instructions. Laundry symbols on the care labels indicate how it should be cleaned. Some garments need dry cleaning only. Some dresses need cold water cleaning and drying in the shade. What about those dresses without a care label? It seems a bit of a risk since it is not clear what fabric it is made of. The specialist would know what is the best cleaning method. 
Dry cleaning services get better all the time with hectic competition. Why not opt for affordable superior services rather than struggle through the weekends on private machines?

The Art of Men’s Suit Alterations Elevating Your Style with Expert Tailoring in London
In the world of men's fashion, a well-tailored suit is not just a piece of clothing; it's a statement of elegance and professionalism. At B X Tailoring Alteration, we specialize in men’s suit alterations, ensuring that each suit fits perfectly and enhances your overall look.

Tumblr media
Why Suit Alterations Matter
Off-the-rack suits are designed to fit a broad range of body types, but they often fall short in providing a perfect fit. A suit that is not tailored to your specific measurements can appear bulky, unflattering, or uncomfortable. Suit alterations address these issues, ensuring that every aspect of your suit complements your physique and personal style.
Key Areas of Men Suit Alterations
1. Jacket Adjustments:
Shoulder Fit: The shoulders of the jacket should align perfectly with your natural shoulder line. Alterations can correct issues like shoulder padding that might cause the jacket to sit unevenly.
Sleeve Length: The sleeves should end just above the wrist bone, allowing the shirt cuffs to peek out slightly. A skilled tailor will adjust the sleeve length to achieve this balance.
Body Fit: The jacket’s waist can be taken in or let out to create a more tailored silhouette. This adjustment is crucial for eliminating excess fabric and achieving a sleek, streamlined look.
2. Trouser Adjustments:
Waistband Fit: Trousers should fit comfortably at the waist without the need for a belt. We can adjust the waistband to ensure a snug yet comfortable fit.
Inseam Length: The length of the trousers is important for achieving the right break over the shoes. We tailor the inseam to avoid excessive bunching or dragging.
Leg Tapering: For a modern, fitted look, the trouser legs can be tapered. This adjustment creates a more tailored appearance that complements the jacket’s style.
3. Collar and Lapel Adjustments:
Collar Fit: Ensuring that the collar sits neatly against the neck is essential for a clean and professional look. Adjustments can correct any gaps or folds.
Lapel Alignment: The lapels should lie flat and align perfectly with the jacket’s shoulders. We ensure that lapels are adjusted for a polished and symmetrical appearance.
