When it comes to our favorite clothes, many of us are extra careful loading the washing machine. Checking tags, separating colors and choosing the right temperature are all great laundry practices to follow. But if you’re just using your machine to wash clothes and linen, you’re making a big mistake. Experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute Cleaning Lab have uncovered a few surprising items that can actually be safely washed in your machine — along with the best cycle, temperature and settings to use for each. Whether your reusable grocery bags have begun to look a bit ragged or your favorite white sneakers are showing signs of wear, we’re here to help. Read on for detailed instructions on how to safely wash items that you may have previously considered non-washer safe, ensuring they come out of the machine clean and intact. Just remember to always follow any care label instructions that come with the item. 1. Shower Curtain LinersLaura MillarLike most things in your home, shower curtain liners need a good cleaning every once in a while. Whether you’ve tried soaking and scrubbing your liner, spraying it with a homemade cleaning spray or even replacing it all together, we’re here to tell you that there’s an easier way. “Select a warm, delicate cycle or for very dirty liners a hot, short cycle adding in some bleach (for clear or white liners) and some old towels for scrubbing action,” says Forté. “At the end of the cycle, place the liner in the dryer on low heat for only a few minutes to remove excess moisture so you can carry it back to the bathroom without dripping. Do not leave the dryer unattended with the liner inside. Re-hang the liner to smooth it out and finish drying.”Related Stories2. Reusable Grocery BagsThere are lots of different types of reusable grocery bags, so before washing, just be sure to take note of the fabric. “For bags made totally of washable fabric, turn them inside out and wash them in warm water on a gentle or normal cycle depending on the construction. If safe, tumble dry them on low or hang them to air dry,” says Forté.3. Canvas ShoesLaura MillarAlmost everyone has had a light-colored pair of canvas shoes they wish they were a bit more careful with. But when it comes to cleaning, canvas shoes can actually be thrown in the washer as long as they’re in a mesh bag.”Slip out any removable insoles and hand wash them separately. Put shoes into a mesh bag and wash them in warm water on a gentle cycle,” says Forté. “Air dry or, if safe, tumble dry low. Some dryers have a rack for drying items, like shoes, without tumbling.”Related Story4. Oven Mitts and PotholdersLaura MillarOven mitts and potholders are especially susceptible to food stains, and while that’s expected given their role in the kitchen, that doesn’t mean they have to stay dirty permanently. If you notice your oven mitts have been doing a little extra work lately, take them for a spin in the washer.Forté recommends washing them in warm water on a normal or gentle cycle. Then, tumble dry them on low. However, if your oven mitts are torn or have any holes where the padding is exposed, it’s best to hand wash them.5. PillowsWhile we all wash our pillowcases, sometimes our pillows need a little extra love, too. Luckily, most pillows can be pretty easily washed if they’re made with down, down alternative or shredded foam filling. Just make sure to remember to fluff and turn them as you dry. “Wash on a gentle or bulky bedding cycle with an extra rinse added in” says Forté. “Tumble dry low with dryer balls, fluffing and turning them often.”However, stear clear of washing any pillows made with solid foam.Related Story6. Plush Toys Laura MillarWhile many don’t think to wash their kids’ toys out of fear of damaging them, it’s actually totally safe as long as you follow the correct steps. “​​Place toys in a pillowcase or mesh bag and wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle,” recommends Forté. “Fluff or reshape them and air dry or, if safe, tumble dry low.” If your child’s toys are are torn, have decorative trims, are not colorfast or are especially old or valuable, avoid machine washing them.7. Bathtub MatsAlthough you may be washing your bath mat, you may not be washing the one that goes inside your tub.Using a gentle cycle in warm to hot water is the key to washing your bathtub mat. Once it’s done in the wash, air dry your mat. Related StoriesLaura Millar (she/her) is the assistant editor for Good Housekeeping, where she covers home design.

1. Look for a neutral silhouette.Transitional style often gets a bad rap for being unexciting, but the flip side — and the reason it always remains so popular — is that it’s supremely versatile. A sofa like the StyleWell Winnick in Oyster Beige, with its clean lines and simple arm and cushion shapes, will work in any room and play nicely with just about any other furniture you place around it. So if you decide to redo your mid-century modern living room to reflect your new love of, say, farmhouse style — this baby will roll with it.2. Opt for subtle design details.If you’re absolutely sure that you’ll never grow tired of a certain look — like a classic rolled arm — you can indulge your desire for iconic details and still have a piece that will age gracefully by staying away from exaggerated versions. The gently rolled arms on the StyleWell Briarwood Classic Rolled-Arm in Sand Beige make the stylistic point without shouting “English country house”— which in turn means it can work in any house.3. Consider leather (real or faux).It’s a classic for a reason. Leather looks right on an ultra-modern stainless steel-framed sofa, and on a traditional button-tufted Chesterfield. You’ll also have a piece that easily coordinates with any color scheme. The mid-century-leaning StyleWell Goodwin Square Arm in caramel faux leather is flexible enough to suit minimalist living rooms and traditional, men’s-club-style dens alike.Advertisement – Continue Reading Below4. Take dimensions into account.It goes without saying that you should never buy a sofa you don’t find comfortable — but remember that length, height and depth have design implications as well. In particular, pay attention to the floor-to-seat measurement, which in sofas can be as short as 15 inches and sometimes as tall as 28 or 29. The former makes for a low-slung look that really works best in super-casual or very contemporary rooms. The latter might be a little more versatile visually, but it can be hard to find coordinating chairs and tables that look appropriate with that height. All the options shown here from The Home Depot — including this subtly modern StyleWell Doherty Flared-Arm — measure between 18 and 20 inches from floor to seat, a nice middle ground.5. A word about durability.No, this isn’t a design tip, but if you’re going to the trouble to choose a sofa that will feel stylish for years, then you also want it to last for years. This upholstered version of the StyleWell Goodwin is covered in a microfiber fabric that looks and feels luxurious but can stand up to some pretty serious wear and tear. Opting for synthetic blends or other high-performance fabrics over mohair, silk and the like can extend your sofa’s lifespan significantly.Advertisement – Continue Reading BelowAdvertisement – Continue Reading BelowAdvertisement – Continue Reading Below More

If you’re trying to decide between purchasing a fabric or woven hamper or a plastic basket, Forté recommended considering the size and shape of both. “Hampers hold more, are deeper and are a place to toss in dirty laundry until you can wash it,” she said. You can also consider the design of each, especially if you prefer separating colors or certain items: “Some [hampers] are divided to help with sorting, meanwhile with a laundry basket, everything is mixed together usually,” Forté explained. She also pointed out that hampers typically have lids while baskets don’t — making hampers better if you’re storing laundry in your bedroom, rather than a laundry room or closet. However, a laundry basket can be a better choice if you want to purchase a one-and-done item. A baskets is a strong, functional container for carrying laundry around the house, whether it’s dirty or clean and folded. It’s a more practical option that gets the job done, even if it’s not the most appealing design-wise. They each have their pros and cons, with different strengths for different situations.” Baskets should be easy to carry and store and hampers should be attractive if left out in a room,” Forté said.

Aloe has won over many home gardeners with its hardiness and tolerance of infrequent watering. Stoffo recommends “well-draining soil so that when they are watered, the soil doesn’t retain too much water and rot the roots.” Your best bet is to mix equal parts sand and potting soil or buy a special succulent mix. The terracotta also dries faster than other plastic or glazed containers.Place your aloe in a bright, sunny place. Otherwise, it will go dormant and stop growing. Water the plant heavily about once every two weeks, waiting until the soil dries out fully. Since this is a desert species, keeping the dirt moist will cause the roots to rot. Limp or brown leaves also signal you’ve overdone the water.If you like, you can move the potted plant outdoors for the summer, but don’t put it in direct sunlight right away. Gradually place it in a brighter spot every few days to prevent overexposure.If you live in a warm climate year-round (Zone 10 or higher on the USDA Plant Hardiness Map), you can nurture your aloe outside. Freezing temperatures will kill the leaves, but you really have to worry about frozen soil, as that will kill the roots and no new sprouts will grow.When picking a spot, look for a well-drained bed. You won’t need to water your aloe with the exception of droughts. If it hasn’t rained in months, give it a good soaking and then let the soil dry out again. More

When decorating an apartment or house, wall decor is the perfect way to showcase your personality and complete the space. Often, hanging artwork is the very last task to tackle, because it involves a hammer and nails and careful consideration when it comes to choosing the best place to display each piece. Whether you’re decorating a rental or want to avoid damaging your walls, we’re sharing the best advice on how to hang art without using nails. Not only will your walls be void of holes, but these easy methods make it possible to swap or add artwork as your collection grows. From family photos and striking paintings to artsy gallery walls, these tips will make the process easy. Try hanging art from clothespins for bedroom wall decor, leaning and layering art on a fireplace mantel or using washi tape as photo frames. Keep it simple by swapping nails for adhesive strips or picture hooks — no one will know the difference. Keep scrolling for even more genius ideas. 1. Rely on adhesive strips.Apply adhesive strips directly to picture frames (we recommend using one or two strips on each side of the frame, depending on its size). Find the right size strip based on the weight of the artwork. Heavy duty strips (for pictures between 10 and 20 pounds) typically require one strip adhered to the wall and one to the photo frame, then you must line up the strips to hang. Adhesive strips work well on painted walls, as well as tile, concrete and glass surfaces. Keep in mind: Most adhesive strips shouldn’t be applied to wallpaper, fabric or brick walls. Command Picture Hanging Strips2. Lean and layer art.Wall decor doesn’t have to hang on the wall. Display framed artwork on any surface, be it a fireplace mantel, floating shelf or console table, by leaning it against the wall. For an elevated style, arrange taller and larger artwork directly against the wall with smaller frames in front.Sara Ligorria-TrampTake note from designer Velinda Hellen and lean art on a mantel. 3. Hang clothespins on ribbon or twine.Secure both sides of a piece of twine or ribbon to the wall, using clear tape or push pins. Clip photographs and prints with small clothespins to the twine or ribbon. While this trendy decorating idea won’t work for large, heavy artwork, it’s a fun way to display a mix of art without damaging your walls. Added bonus: You can easily swap out prints and photographs as you collect new pieces. 4. Use adhesive picture hooks.Find the right adhesive hook by determining the size and weight of your artwork, as well as the hanger on the back. Command has specific sawtooth frame hangers, wire back hangers, large canvas holders and universal frame hangers, but you can also use common wall hooks — just note how much weight each hook can support. Clear hooks work well for small artwork as well. It’s recommended that hooks are adhered to the wall for at least an hour before hanging anything.Command Picture Hanging Hooks5. Install picture rail molding.Putting up molding isn’t a renter-friendly idea, but it’s definitely a unique way to display your favorite artwork. Find molding with a curved top that will fit picture hangers, and nail it into the wall. Later, hang framed prints and paintings with picture hanging wire. A Beautiful MessBlogger Elsie Larson of A Beautiful Mess installs picture rail molding, then hangs artwork using rail hooks and brass wire.6. Make a washi tape gallery wall.Tape your favorite prints and photos to the wall using colorful washi tape. The bright shades will give the artwork a colorful border while safely adhering it to the wall. If you’re attempting to arrange a gallery wall, make sure to find art in various sizes and plan a layout before you start taping.7. Prop a bulletin board.Show off a mix of photographs, prints, quotes and cuttings from magazines without hanging anything directly onto the wall. Coat a wood board with magnetic paint, then secure the artwork once it’s dried. The best part? You can rearrange, add or remove pieces whenever you wish. Sara Albers of Alice & LoisSara Albers of Alice & Lois turned a basic pine board into an arched mood board, painting it with magnetic paint so hanging artwork is simple.
