Remember the linen I cleaned for a friend while I was on holiday? Well, these are some pictures taken on the day I brought it back home, and Ken thought I had bought it all at an auction!

Gina, how sweet of you to do all that work for your friend, even though I'm sure there were lots of 'pretties' there....=)
Did you use some special techniques and/or washing solution to clean all this linen?
Hi Maggie and Cici, thanks for your comments! Cici, I use an Aussie product called Napisan to soak all my linen. I forget what the American equivalent is called, but it comes under the class of oxygenating cleaners, or something like that. It does NOT contain ammonia or any kind of bleach. I soak my linens in it overnight (or longer if they are badly stained), then rinse them in cold water, and hang them on the clothes line to dry.
That's a lot of linen!
Oh my! You were busy.

I can just imagine my DH's face if I came home with a similar pile of books in boxes (to store for someone or something). He'd have a bird!!! Cheers Judy

Oh my goodness, that is a serious pile of linens! You are such a dear to undertake that much cleaning, especially while on holiday. Wish I could have seen Ken's face when he thought you bought it all, that would have been priceless!
