I have a couple pillows that need cleaning. 2 are fru fru fancy bed pillows-- but they feel like they're probably just cotton stuffing inside. And the third is a posturpedic pillow. How do you wash these? In the washer? One at a time? I'd rather not ruin any of them! Thanks :D

I'd only do this in a front loading washer: If the fancy pillows are small enough, I'd put them inside a pillow case (tie a knot at the end) to wash them. But, I wouldn't dry them in the dryer (I've ruined a few - the batting gets all goofy). The best way to do the fancy pillows would be to take the cover off, if you can.
As for the posturpedic pillow - I'd check their website for directions.

Put two pillow cases on them, in opposite directions, and safety pin one opening shut, in case the pillow splits. (The extra cases keep the stuffing from clogging the machine.) Wash gently in (preferably) a front load washer and then dry very thoroughly. Fluff and use.

you can wash pillows in the washing machine. If they are white wash them in hot water just like whites. If they are colored then wash them in warm unless they are red or pink. those you should wash in cold so the colors do not run. then dry them and fluff them up after drying. Use your fluff setting on the dryer.

one at a time on the delicate setting.
