Spring Has Sprung. Now Put Winter To Bed.

The jumpers are coming off, the coats are heading to the back of the wardrobe and suddenly everyone’s pretending they’re organised.

Before you throw your winter wardrobe into a box and forget about, there’s something you need to know: how you store it this winter matters. A lot.

Don’t Feed The Moths

Moths aren’t actually interested in your expensive knitwear. They’re interested in the little leftovers you’ve left behind — sweat, skin oils, food and stains.

So that “clean enough” jumper? Give it a once-over before it goes into hibernation.

And that mystery mark you’ve been ignoring since July? This is your sign.

Treat it now. Future-you will be very grateful.

Fold It. Don’t Hang It.

Your favourite knit + six months on a hanger = stretched shoulders and a jumper that suddenly looks like it belongs to your dad #oversized

Fold your knitwear and store it flat.

Ditch The Plastic

Plastic might keep things tidy, but it can also trap moisture — hello, musty smells and mildew.

Go breathable instead. Cotton garment bags, drawers or breathable storage boxes are your friends.

Make Moths Move House

Cedar blocks or lavender sachets are an easy natural deterrent. Pop them in with your winter wardrobe and refresh them every few months.

The Truly Rule

Never store a stain.

Give anything questionable a quick treatment before it disappears into the cupboard.

Because there’s nothing worse than pulling out your favourite jumper next winter and discovering the stain has officially moved in.

Deal with it now. Thank yourself later #trulygrateful
