Could you lightly spray your clothes? It might actually help with wrinkles too. An added bonus. :0) The Frugal Washing Machine24 Aug 2008 08:44 PM We are a homeschooling family of 11. For us, hand washing is too time consuming. We have cut back on the laundry we have to do by wearing our clothes more than 1 day. Sunday's clothes get worn to church again on Wed then get washed. Play clothes get washed only if they are really dirty. We wash more in summer than winter. If we have to leave the house, we change into fresh clothes but then change again when we come home. We also rinse and wring our wash cloths for baths and dish washing so they can be used again. We have monogrammed towels for bathing. We are clean when we get out of the shower so why wash them? We hang them on hooks instead. I have some bed wetters. We rinse the bed sheets on a line outside then air dry them. It saved about 6 loads of wash a week. I do wash them in the washer once a week. It is not ideal, but we do what we have to do. I re-thought my laundry washing when my mother in law told me she had 2 school dresses that she wore all week long. She changed into play clothes (the same ones every day) when she got home. |
