How often should you clean valances, decorative pillows, chairs, and lampshades? Most people know you are supposed to clean them, but how and when is often a mystery. Can you clean valances yourself and do they go in the washing machine or do they have to be hand washed?
Do professional cleaners and maids clean valances or do they have to be dry cleaned?

Today's #upholsterycleaning show sponsor is #SavvyCleaner training and certification for house cleaners and maids. (https://savvycleaner.com/join) And your host today is #AngelaBrown
