The Benefits of Linen
Linen is one of the most versatile of fabrics available and this makes it such a favourite amongst
homeowners. Linen curtains are light and airy, making them easy to install when compared to bulky cotton or woollen curtains. Linen curtains don’t wrinkle as much as silk, silk-blend and cotton-blend fabrics as well, making maintenance absolutely trouble-free.
Linen as a material is aesthetically stunning. It has a wonderful fall and finishes, making your curtains look elegant and stylish. Brilliant in texture and tone, these linen curtains from Linenshed are the perfect choice for your home and office alike.
Additionally, linen curtains provide a lot of benefits to the home. These blackout bedroom curtains perform two functions – they provide thermal insulation that can help keep the heat inside your home during long winter months and they will help you save on the air conditioning during the hottest days of summer. This way, you only need to invest in one set of fabric, as opposed to two.
Linen curtains are favored because of their high quality and durability. While cotton, woolen and Georgette curtains may cost significantly lesser than linen, however, they aren’t as sturdy and long lasting. You may need to pay a higher price today, but once you make this investment, you will have gorgeous blackout bedroom curtains that will last you for years to come.
A fact about linen that most people don’t know is that it has antiseptic and antimicrobial properties.
Linen is a material that is used in surgical sutures as it allows injuries to heal without causing infections or bacterial growth. Using linen fabrics in your house will prevent microbes and mould from growing on them. This will ensure greater health and safety for you and your loved ones. Additionally, linen doesn’t get soiled as easily as other fabrics and is relatively safe from moulds and microbes.
This makes washing and ironing easy. Your linen drapes won’t need as much cleaning as your cotton ones do.
Choosing linen blackout drapes will be the best decision you make when sprucing up your bedding. The linen blackout curtains are made with a protective layer of polyester blackout lining at back. Linen curtains that don’t have a blackout lining are at a risk of fading due to direct exposure to sunlight. By using blackout lining, you are preventing your linen curtains from losing color. The unique polyester fabric used makes your blackout curtains one of the best linen fabrics available.

Caring for linen items is rather simple and straightforward. Here are some basic rules you may follow to make the most of your linen articles.
If you wash by hand:
- Take a small bucket or use a sink with lukewarm water and add a teaspoon of mild detergent.
- Immerse the linen item into your container and let it soak for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir gently the item around. Do not twist the fabric because it may stretch the fabric.
- Empty the soapy water and rinse a couple of times until all the soap residue is totally gone. Hang your item to dry.
If you machine wash your linen:
- Avoid mixing white, dark and coloured items. It is advised to turn your linen inside out and wash separately from other fabrics. Do not overload the machine.
- To be energy efficient and to preserve the life span of your linen, wash it in lukewarm water only. Excessive temperature may cause a shrinkage of over 5%, which could be a serious issue for items such as bed skirts or curtains.
- Use only mild detergent formulated for delicate fabrics.
- Do not use bleach.
- Never pour detergent directly on dry linen as that may stain the fabric. Always dilute the detergent before putting it into your machine.
- Avoid electric dryers or use at a low or medium setting to avoid damaging the linen fabric and getting excessive shrinkage.
- If you can hang dry your linen, the wind and the sun will do a better job.
