1. One tip that seems obvious but is often ignored ? the manufacturers washing instructions that you will find in the garment labels. Manufacturers of fabric spend vast amounts of money to find out what are the best washing conditions for their goods. So always try and wash as instructed, it does help clothes last longer.
2. Use a fabric protector to spray collars, cuffs and knees of garments, any spills will form into beads and can be easily wiped clean.
3. Get grimy soiled socks clean by soaking them in a water and washing soda solution before washing.
4. White cotton socks can be revitalised by boiling them in water with a slice of lemon.
5. Instead of bleach add vinegar to the water as an alternative.
6. Sneakers can be kept looking new by spraying them with starch before wearing them for the first time ? this will stop dirt from getting embedded.
7. A soap filled scouring pad is great for sneakers or any fabric shoes.
8. Rub white shoes with a raw potato cut in half, or alcohol, before cleaning. Keep them white by spraying with hairspray ? This prevents the polish from coming off and keeps them looking new.
