An Organized laundry
Do you cringe every time you look in your laundry?
The following tips will help you take your laundry from Oh No to Oh Yes
1. Try and get a load of washing done once a day: I tend to do mine at night, but this is mainly due to the fact that I work during the day and leave home early. If you don’t work or leave home a little later you could easily do this load in the morning. The aim is that you do the daily load and hang it out or pop it in the drier straight after it is finished.
2. Buy a laundry sorter (if you can afford it) : The other option is to make laundry bags and have hooks on the back of the laundry doors. checking pockets for tissues or change, and putting them in the correct bag in our laundry sorter. When it’s time to wash, I just toss the entire laundry bag in the washer.
3. Keep your laundry supplies together. I keep my soap, stain remover, dryer sheets, etc. on a shelf in my laundry room, right near the machines. In addition, we have a small garbage container nearby for dryer lint. Make it easy on yourself, by making things as convenient as possible.
4. Remove and fold. As soon as the dryer cycle is done, remove the clothes–before wrinkles have a chance to set in.
You’ll have less ironing. Even if you do have to iron something, the wrinkles will be minimal.
5. Think twice. Before laundering, determine if that item truly needs to be washed. Very often, I can wear a pair of jeans or a shirt two or three times before running them through a wash cycle. If you do this, your laundry pile won’t be quite as big each day.
