Curtains can be washed, but sometimes ordinary washing does not return them to a bright whiteness. So how can home curtains be whitened?
So, for a tulle curtain, the procedure for cleaning with ordinary salt is suitable. Dip the fabric in warm water, leave for half an hour - this will make the fabric more elastic. It’s even better to rinse the curtain under the tap. Then add about 250 grams of salt and a couple of spoons of ordinary washing powder to the basin with curtains. Leave the tulle for twelve hours, then it remains to rinse it, dry it and hang it in the usual place!
If your tulle is made of a delicate veil, then you can bleach it with hydrogen peroxide and ammonia. These reagents must be diluted with hot water in a ratio of 1: 2. Dip the curtain into the water, after half an hour you can start rinsing. The bleaching method is very effective - in such a short time the chemical reaction does its job efficiently - the tulle becomes like new!
In the kitchen, most often hang curtains made of light organza. Here you can resort to folk remedies. Dissolve 250 grams of starch in a bowl of water, lower the dirty curtain, leave for a couple of hours. Then it remains to rinse the organza tulle and send it to dry, without squeezing water from it! Starch gives tulle not only a bright whiteness, but also a relief paired with additional volume.
And someone resorts to another proven method - to the greenback, which is available in almost every first-aid kit! Dissolve ten drops of brilliant green in a glass of water, place a clean curtain in a basin with this water, adding a little more hot. Hold for about ten minutes, then slightly squeeze the cloth, hang to dry. After such a simple procedure, the tulle becomes much whiter, acquiring additional freshness!
It is worth trying all of the listed methods for bleaching tulle, in order to understand which is best for you!
