Twice a year — first Sunday of spring, first Sunday of fall.

Clean and Refresh a Mattress — A calm bedroom corner with linen sheets, folded laundry, and a lavender sprig.

Steps

  1. 01Strip all bedding. Wash sheets, pillow protectors, mattress protector.
  2. 02Vacuum the entire mattress, including sides, with the upholstery attachment.
  3. 03Sprinkle a thin even layer of baking soda over the whole top.
  4. 04Leave for 1 hour. The soda absorbs moisture and odor.
  5. 05Vacuum again — slowly, two passes.
  6. 06Rotate the mattress (head to foot every 6 months; flip if it's a flippable type).
  7. 07Re-dress with clean linens. Sleep is now better tonight without anyone noticing why.
