Thatâs a lot dryer than UK - we are 70%-90% relative humidity. A fine mist of water into the atmosphere around the cabinet, not directly onto the linen, from time to time should help especially in the drier/summer months.
Acid free tape and an acid free marker sound fine to me.

Wrap the spools loosely in acid free tissue, but allow the air to circulate, maybe open the drawer when the room is steamy, and donât seal the linen into polythene bags. > > Brenda in Allhallows > [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > www.brendapaternoster.co.uk > > > > > > Brenda in Allhallows [email protected] www.brendapaternoster.co.uk - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
