A few months ago my mother gave my sister and I some of my grandparent’s linens. There was a tablecloth, napkins, and a table runner. All of them were very pretty. I loved the embroidery work that was on all of them, however, the yellowing of the fabric made them look dirty. A few of them had some stains on them in addition to the yellowing linen.

I decided to take them home and see if I could get the stains out. So, I found a recipe that had been written down to get rid of stains in old linens and I decided to give it a try to see if it could help me with cleaning linens. It was amazing what a difference it made. See my stained linens below before I cleaned them.

If you are dealing with yellowed or stained linens give this awesome cleaning hack a try. See my best tip for cleaning linens so they look like new.

To start off with you will need a large pot or clean sink. Fill the pot or sink with a gallon of hot water. You want to make sure the water is very hot so it can fully dissolve all of the soap. I heated mine up on the stove to make sure it was hot enough.

Once you have a gallon of hot water add in 1 cup of Biz and 1 cup of Cascade dish detergent. Stir well to make sure that you fully dissolve all of the Biz and Cascade. When you have mixed in all of the biz and cascade you can now add your linen.
