I have my mothers wedding dress and it is starting to smell musty.I rather not send it to a dry cleaner because its fairly old. I have tried taking the smell out with moth balls but it is not working. Any suggestions?

Hi Sue,
Try putting your mother's wedding dress into a brown paper bag and bedside the dress, but not touching it place a peice of charcol. This can also be used for alot of other things that may gather a smell, musty, mold or otherwise.
