Every housewife knows that over time, white linen loses its whiteness, acquiring a yellow or gray tint.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such things no longer look so attractive, but on the contrary, they become unsightly and unkempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, I am not too concerned about these issues, as I know very well how to bleach things that have turned grey or yellow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My grandmother taught me this method. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And despite its simplicity and some naivety, grandmother’s methods of housekeeping are very relevant today.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

This advice, like other grandma’s advice:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • simple;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • accessible;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • effective;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • cheap.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Grandma’s way of bleaching clothes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    This is one of the cheapest methods of whitening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    But it is very effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    And we are talking about the most common salt. The most common table salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Salt is often used as a preventative measure to prevent yellowing of underwear, kitchen towels or bed linen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Prevention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    For preventive purposes, approximately once a month for 2-3 hours, white items should be soaked in a warm solution of water and salt – 3 tablespoons of salt per liter of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    And then you just need to wash the clothes as you usually do – in the washing machine.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Whitening<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    And the following special solution will help to whiten things that have acquired a gray or yellow tint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step-by-step whitening:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Pour slightly hot water into the basin or bathtub where you plan to soak the laundry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • dissolve three tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide and salt in water;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • then add a little washing powder and a teaspoon of ammonia. Stir until the salt dissolves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • soak white items that need to be bleached in this solution for 2 hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • And then wash as usual.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Things will immediately become noticeably whiter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
