You’ve been washing your bed sheets all wrong…the right way makes them smell amazing | The Sun

YOU might think you know how to best wash your bedding, but it turns out there’s a new way that makes your sheets smell amazing.

A TikTok home and cleaning account has shared the perfect way to wash your sheets and it is so simple.

Refined Living posted the sheet washing video on TikTok and we can’t believe we haven’t tried this method sooner. 

The video says: “This is your sign to wash your sheets once a week” and shows the easy process of getting your sheets squeaky clean.

We see the woman add the following into her washing machine – washing detergent, ¼ cup bi carb soda, ¼ cup vinegar and 5 drops of lavender essential oils.

If you’re reading this and only wash your sheets with washing detergent or fabric softener, you might want to have a re-think of your washing routine.

The comments confirmed that “vinegar is in the rinse cycle and acts as a fabric softener.”

The bi carbonate of soda is “perfect for a deep clean”. 

The lavender oil will leave your sheets smelling perfect and is great for getting you to sleep at night. 

This washing routine works perfectly on sheets but is good for all types of washing, including colours and whites.

One person said: “You’re telling me there’s people that do not wash them at least once a week???”

Another added: “Every Sunday!”

A third commented: “What??? People don’t wash them weekly?!” 

Much to the shock of many TikTok users, there were lots of comments with people revealing just how often they wash their bedding.
