How to Fold: Hand Towels

February 15, 2010

Hand Towels are easy to fold.  They are folded almost exactly like bath towels. First, lay the hand towel flat down with the raw edge up.  The seam side should be facing down.  Smooth the towel flat with your hands. Next, fold the bottom third of the towel towards the middle.  This doesn’t have to [...]

February 9, 2010

There are many methods to folding a t-shirt.  Some like the 2-second version, but I’m not really a fan of that.  The arms don’t really fold to my liking and come undone very easily. Then there is the FlipFold.  If you are a person that loves uniformity (me! me!) you’d love this little device.  I [...]

Some of the quickest, easiest clothes to fold are children’s pajamas.  Starting with the shirt, pull both shoulders back so the shirt forms a mirror image.  Smooth wrinkles out with your hands.
