How to Wash a Weighted Blanket - Real Simple

Weighted blankets are a great way to improve your sleep and reduce stress, but they require proper care to maintain their quality and effectiveness. Washing a weighted blanket can be a bit tricky due to its weight and size. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps on how to wash a weighted blanket properly.

Check the care label

Before washing your weighted blanket, make sure to check the care label to determine the appropriate washing method. Some blankets may be machine-washable, while others require handwashing or dry cleaning. Follow the care label instructions to avoid damaging the blanket.

Pre-treat any stains

If there are any stains or spots on your weighted blanket, pre-treat them before washing. Apply a small amount of stain remover or laundry detergent directly to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the stain, and rinse it with cold water.

Use a gentle detergent

When washing a weighted blanket, it's essential to use a gentle detergent that won't damage the fabric or affect the weight of the blanket. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as they can damage the fibers and reduce the effectiveness of the blanket. Instead, use a mild detergent that is specifically designed for delicate fabrics.

Wash in a large washing machine

If your weighted blanket is machine-washable, use a large washing machine that can accommodate its weight and size. Make sure to wash the blanket on a gentle cycle with cold water to avoid shrinking or damaging the fabric.

Dry the blanket properly

After washing the blanket, it's crucial to dry it properly to avoid mold and mildew growth. You can air-dry the blanket by laying it flat on a clean surface, or you can tumble dry it on low heat. If you're using a dryer, add a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help distribute the weight evenly and fluff the blanket.

Store the blanket properly

Once the blanket is dry, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure to avoid folding or compressing the blanket for long periods, as it can affect the weight distribution and reduce its effectiveness. In conclusion, washing a weighted blanket requires a bit of extra care, but it's worth the effort to maintain its quality and effectiveness. By following these steps, you can ensure that your weighted blanket stays clean, comfortable, and long-lasting. Read the full article

Surprising Health benefits of weighted blankets

A weighted blanket is a blanket with a layer of plastic pellets, glass beads, or other material sewn into the interior. They are often used in occupational therapy for people with autism and ADHD, but there is also evidence that regular use can help to improve sleep quality and reduce anxiety.

Songs for DRDT ships

(Repost because tumblr fucked up the last one)

I got confirmation from one (1) person so I'm making this post.

What's a song that you'd say represents a DRDT ship? I'll list a few I have.

Hit Me by Winchifrost for TeruVid

(I have so many for XanVid I can't pick just one D:)

hey, so i got a question. im self dx autistic and i really struggle with social cues and stuff. like, i never know when someone's joking or being sarcastic and it's kinda awkward. u got any tips or life hacks for figuring this stuff out? also, do u think weighted blankets are worth it? thx in advance!

Hey, thanks for reaching out with your question! Social cues can definitely be tricky. One tip I've found helpful is to observe body language and facial expressions, although I know that's easier said than done. Sometimes, asking for clarification in a casual way can also help, like 'Are you being sarcastic?' or 'Is that a joke?'

As for weighted blankets, many people in the autistic community find them really beneficial for sensory regulation and sleep quality. However, they can be a bit pricey. If you're unsure, maybe try a cheaper version first to see if it works for you.

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask more questions if you have any. 😊

Stays Krunchy in Milk Episode 470: Dix-Sept Novembre 2022

Full disclosure, this episode came after a week of multiple recordings for all involved. We say this to say, we were kind of podcast gassed by this point. We attempt format at the start before just spinning off into a more freestyle show that all goes back to Ant’s story about his kid falling out of the bed. This discussion meanders from Weighted Blankets to the French jazz funk band Cortex, basically, strap in because it’s one helluva ride. We of course head on over to Reddit for some AITA fin and discuss our adventures in Sports and Entertainment as always. Thanks as always for joining us, see you next time.

🎄 Zelah loves her early Christmas present! This weighted kids blanket from

@uttermara.official is exactly what I had been looking for! Weighted blankets are a wonderful way to calm and help kids feel peaceful. This #weightedblanket is designed to mimic the warmness and secure sense of #cuddles. It helps children naturally feel relaxed and eases agitation after a long day of study and play. The perfect way to calm them so they fall asleep. I love the confetti color block design and how it's hand woven so beautifully with the soft, weighted chunky yarns. It comes in different weights and sizes according to the size of your chold. I think this blanket makes a thoughtful and useful gift for any little one. It's currently available at the #uttermara store on amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6ZLV9BQ

This weighted blanket is supposed to alleviate my anxiety but it’s not working. . “Cold Soil Kettle” will be on view as a part of a virtual, immersive @scopeartshow booth with @mortalmachinegallery early next month. I’ve been working on this piece since late February and shipping it to the gallery yesterday had me feeling some stuff, in addition to being crushed by my own hubris. . The title refers to Cold Soil Road in Lawrenceville, NJ. I don’t know why, but I’ve designated the imagined end of that road to be this strange place inhabited by a huge subsection of the creatures I’ve made. Cold Soil finds its way into many of my titles. . . . #newcontemporaryart #fiberart #fiberartist #sculptureart #rhizosphere #biologyart #natureart #skeletonart #artsculpture #lace #scopemiami #virtualgallery #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #crochetaddict #amigurumi #textiledesign #textileart #weightedblanket #anxiety #anxiousartist (at New Orleans, Louisana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIBcjRGn4FI/?igshid=pmjlrnv7x3ux
