Laundry Tips

Laundry Tips:

Have a wastebasket next to the clothes dryer for discarding lint balls and used dryer sheets

Hang a towel rack in the laundry area for hanging wet things that can’t be dried.

Establish a regular routine for laundry. For example, do one load each morning or each evening, depending on your schedule.

Finish. Think finish when doing the laundry. Get the clothes into the dryer. Set a timer so you get the clothes out of the dryer the moment the time dings. You are not finished until the laundry is folded and put away.

Folding and putting away a load of laundry actually takes no more than five minutes, so just do it.

Do You Hate Doing Laundry?

Most people hate doing laundry. Here are the main reasons that laundry is such a pain:

1. The drawers are too full. You dread doing laundry because putting the clothes away is hard. The drawers and closets are already too full and you are trying to add to them.

2. Too many clothes. The reason the drawers and closets are too full is you have too many clothes. In the past, you may have bought more and more clothes to keep from having to do laundry as often. The laundry piles just get bigger and bigger.

1. Dreading doing it. If the laundry piles up, the rest of the house seems piled up, too. Laundry is one of those chores that is never going to go away so just do it.

How to do laundry painlessly (well, as painlessly as possible):

1. Clean out the drawers and closets. Start with one drawer. One drawer will only take you 10 or 15 minutes. You can do this!

2. Do one load of laundry a day to stay caught up. You most likely have a washer and dryer, which does most of the work for you. Folding and putting away a load of clothes only takes 5 minutes. If you don't believe me, time it!

3. Stop dreading the laundry and just do it. Laundry is never going to go away. Just start a routine and stick to it. It is not so bad. Just do it, get it over with and GO PLAY!
