It is important to cover the beds with warm & cheerful comforters when there is a chilly and cold weather conditions. Bedding stored in sealed bags with the air removed will be clean, however, it may be flat, too. Down comforters, mostly stored during the warm seasons, can get lumpy if the filling was roughly distributed while they were put away. Comforters that are presently in use and are flat should be restored, as well. Fluffing process will help restore volume, which in turn, makes your comforter luxurious and warm for cold winter nights.
5 Easy Steps Of Fluffing A Down Comforter
A soft as well as a sturdy down comforter can be extremely helpful for making yourself warm on cold winter nights, however, a flattened, lumpy comforter will not have the same effect. The majority of the fluff and thickness is bestowed due to the air betwixt the feathers, and lying or sitting on the comforter takes that air out. The other reason for lumps and loss of volume due to the fact that you move unconsciously while sleeping. If you fluff your comforter on a regular basis, it will help you prevent more time-consuming course of action. Go through the below-mentioned steps carefully in order to fluff a down comforter:
- The first and the foremost step is to adjust the comforter over the bed after waking up in the morning. Position yourself at the foot of the bed, and take hold of the end of the comforter. Elevate it to head height, then powerfully pull it downward, transmitting a wavelet through the comforter and bringing in air into the down. Repeat the process many times every morning.
- The next step is to apply pressure to any lumpy sections of down using the tip of your hand in order to re-allocate the feathers more evenly. By extending the down in every part of the comforter shell, make sure all the parts of the comforter are evenly fluffy.
- After that, attach the comforter on an outdoor rope for many hours on a breezy day as this will be helpful in bringing air back into the down.
- Now, place the comforter in a large commercial dryer if in case the comforter's fluff is still not restored sufficiently. Dryer needs to be set on the air fluff setting, which doesn't use heat. Put a few tennis balls inside white socks, and then affix them to the dryer. The tennis balls will help break up groups of down, and the socks avert the balls from shifting any color or dirt to the comforter.
- Finally, air-fluff the comforter in the dryer for many hours before removing the comforter every 20 minutes and shake it. As soon as you have completely fluffed a down comforter, return it to the bed.
