Washing Rainbow bamboozles

Postby Ilovebigbear74 » Sun May 27, 2012 7:28 pm

Hello!

Just a quick one- I have just bought some rainbow stretchies-gorgeous colours! I am paranoid though about them ruining my white nappies- any advice please? I have also just bought some WN colourful fleece liners- do you all just put them in with the white nappies too?

Thanks for your time,

xx

I never separate my nappies into colours or whites but I don't have any of the new bamboozles (just the old ones!)

I have heard reports of some colours running though :(

I had some rainbow bamboozles in 2008/9 and I did wash them separately to start off with - I had the orange ones which seemed to leave some orange fluff on my bumbles. I do like my white nappies to be very white tho so prob a bit paranoid!! maybe do a few washes separately before putting them all in togther?

I'll be buying a few, and I plan to wash them separately for a bit. I'm going to sacrifice one old white diaper as my tester before I start mixing them too!

I found myself washing my old bamboozles seperately from the other nappies. I suspected that they were leaving white fluff on my other nappies. I am not sure it was them now though. I would be tempted to wash them seperately for the first few tomes and maybe pop in a colour catcher too.

Definitely wash them seperately - my blue one dyed my entire nappy wash blue despite having 2 colour catchers in the load :(
