How fo Wash Slip Covers
Did you know you can wash slip covers in a washing machine? Well, you can— if the slip cover material is washable and colorfast and has seams that are not given to fraying. (Naturally, there are some slip covers which should be dry cleaned; and you would be wise to check the manufacturer's recommendations on this score.)
Be sure you shake the covers well to remove loose, dusty particles and close all zippers or snap openings before you consign them to the washer, advises the General Electric Con sumers Institute. = » " PUT THEM into the washer one at a time—and don’t overload the machine if you want a good cleaning job. One divan
cover, two chair covers or five | pillow covers make an ample
washer load. » Wash the slip covers for 5 to 10 minutes’ and remove them from the washer immediately. Put them in a clothes dryer or out on the line until they are almost dry; just enough mois-
smoothing the Thaterial gently to its original shape and size. Finish the job by hand ironing the covers right on the furni-
ture.
