Beautiful precious infant clothes often spend years crumpled and squeezed, lost to the dark regions of a closet, bag, or box. They become yellow, acidic, and musty. Old stains take on a life of their own. Using gentle, old-fashioned hand washing techniques, however, we can clean and restore these garments to their original beauty. Cleaning is also essential for their long life.

We treat each garment on a unique basis. Soaking, patience, and only the gentlest of soaps are used. Everything is washed and pressed by hand. We do not use bleach or any other harsh chemicals.

Obviously, some stains and damage are not totally removable or repairable, but with nearly all garments you will see at  minimum a vast improvement. In general, you'll be amazed at what comes out, and what is revealed!

On this page, two vintage cotton baby garments are offered as examples. The "Before" pictures demonstrate typical problems that develop over time, i.e., yellowing, acid buildup, organic stains, rust stains, plain old dirt, odors. The "After" pictures depict results after we have hand laundered them

Below are guidelines as to cost. After receiving the garment from you we will tell you what is possible, and give you the exact price of cleaning and shipping the garment back to you before proceeding. Please wrap carefully any clothing that you would like cleaned using a method that requires a signature on our end (for example Priority mail with delivery confirmation, Fed Ex, UPS). Please also include a note that lists each item, along with your name, address, phone number and email address.
