- Always store clothes in plastic boxes - wood, cardboard and paper can damage fabrics. However, do remember that natural fibres (such as silk) need to be able to breathe.
- Always wash and dry clothes thoroughly before storing. Place cedar balls, moth-repellent crystals or lavender sachets in between the layers.
- Never iron or starch anything you are storing for longer than a few weeks. Both can weaken the fibres and make them prone to tearing along the creases.
I was always making notes on scraps of paper about tips and facts I'd read in books and magazines, seen on the Internet or on TV. So this is my paperless filing system for all those bits of information I want to access easily. (Please note: I live in the UK, so any financial or legal information relates only to the UK.)
