Before you pack up your winter accessories, give them a good wash or have them professionally cleaned. These items rarely get washed but are often worn the most during the cold, harsh months. Dirt, body oils, germs and bacteria accumulate on the items. Storing them unwashed can lead to deterioration and odors that you’ll discover when the winter months come around again. Most items can be washed in the washing machine and then hung to air-dry.
