@lorenzathelabel: Use tennis balls when drying down jackets and sleeping bags. 🎾 . Firstly wash your down-filled item according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually a gentle cycle with a mild or down specific detergent. . Then to fluff up down-filled items like sleeping bags or jackets after washing, add clean tennis balls to the dryer. . The tennis balls break up clumps of down and evenly distribute the filling, restoring the item’s loft and puffiness. This technique is effective for preventing clumping and it speeds up drying time. . I dried all my husbands outdoor gear a few weeks back after a very wet weekend camping and he’s STILL going on about the loftiness of the sleeping bags 😂 even though this was a tip he first passed onto me. 🥰 . And now, I shall pass to you. 😄🎾❤️ . . . Like my content? Follow me 😃 . My name is Lorenza, I studied fashion and have been sewing for 25 years.
