Hello Mama!
Love the website. You’re a genius!
Hi Mama!
I think I may have an odd question. I have a hard time keeping our small bedroom clean because of one reason- clothes to be re-worn.
My husband wears extra large sweatshirts and jeans for a couple hours a night around the house, then puts them on a bench in our room- they aren’t dirty. I use the same pajama pants for two nights in a row, and have light sweater jackets… the list goes on. All of these items sit on the bench in our room. I’d be constantly putting clothes away if I were to stay on top of it, and I don’t want that.
Do you have any ideas of how to organize clothes that are clean in our bedroom, but are waiting to be re-worn?
Thank you! Hope I am not the only one who has this problem.

Oh definitely not an odd question – unless you and I are BOTH odd! Seriously – this is one of my hardest laundry areas to conquer. I am just like you – I wear things just for the evening that I will probably wear again the next evening.
The only method I’ve found (that works for me) so far is to put my clothes in the same place every single night. For example, if I know I am going to wear the same pair of pajama pants and shirt two evenings in a row I just loosely fold them and put them in the top of my dresser drawer to use the next night. No fancy folding or anything…just enough to get them out of site.
I just make it part of my nighttime routine: wash face, brush teeth, quickly fold up my pants/shirt and put them in my drawer. If I’m too tired at night, I quickly do it in the morning.
What has helped me the most is re-wearing the same thing the next night. Not changing which pajama pants I put on.
This is definitely not life-changing advice, but I hope it helps.

Mama-
That totally helped! Not only does your idea help keep our room clean, but it cuts down on the amount of laundry I have done this week! My husband and I each have a loosely folded pile on a bench in our room. Jammies, sweatshirts and light jackets are put there neatly and re-worn until they are dirty from us wearing them, not from falling on the floor. Our piles are easliy kept small, and clothes are re-hung at our leisure.
Such a simple idea, but helps so much! Thank you!

I love your website! Laundry is my biggest challenge in my home. I am a stay-at-home mom with 3 boys (6,5,2) and a 8wk girl – so we have a lot of laundry! Do you have any suggestions for how to keep up on spot treating stains? My boys toss their clothes into the laundry pile, I sort quickly by color, not really examining them as I go, then when I pull them out of the dryer I find stains that I should have treated. (They wear a uniform to school and I can’t send them to school with jelly/ink/grass stains on them!)
So I’m just curious about how you would fit this into your routine?

I’ll send you an email
I’m really enjoying your blog
and learning alot!
My enduring laundry issue is: Yellowed undershirts…ESPECIALLY armpit staining!
I’ve tried everything…including Bluing…and still have yellowed and crunchy TShirts (my hubby’s).
Any tricks?

Oh yes, I’ve got a few tricks for those. I’ll write a post on it and get it up this week….

Mama -
We recently moved and when I was unpacking one of the boxes of clothes, my husband’s favorite baseball jersey came out with a mysterious stain. The jersey is 100% polyester, but I have absolutely no idea what the stain is. It is kind of an orangey-yellowy stain across the whole bottom, and the jersey itself is white. The only thing I’ve tried is Oxiclean, but that usually gets out anything…so, any ideas?
Thanks for your help, I love your blog! I shared your folding sheets video with my friends. =)
