      You’re as enthusiastic about this as I was, Mary Frances. You know what though, I showed it to my husband and he said he thought he’d seen it before. WHAT!?! And he never showed me? Thanks so much for stopping by this weekend.

    What?! I had to try it a few times but it totally works! Sweet!

    My best laundry tip… minimize your wardrobe. A couple months ago I purged the closets and left everyone with a week’s worth of clothing. Even though I’m doing a load of laundry every couple of days, it’s not the mountains that I used to have to do!

    Thanks for sharing this video!
    xoxo

      Same here. I tried it watching the video and it went much better than when I first tried to do it from memory. Isn’t that just plain awesome? I feel like I need to show every person I know, haha. I’m with you on minimal wardrobes too! My husband’s and mine are pretty small, but our kids clothing seems to never end. It’s like every time I make up a donation bag, the drawers somehow refill. I blame doting grandparents 🙂

    Ummmm…huh? Somehow I have the feeling I could mess this up but I sure am going to have to try it! (mediocre and reluctant housekeeper being part of my blogging profile and all).

      I know, the first time you watch the video it might seem a little intimidating. I think I watched 3x before I took out a shirt to try it. Once you get the hang of it, it’s a great time-saver though, Jill. I’ve been using the method ever since I learned it this past weekend. Hope you take a few seconds to learn. You’ll really love it!

    Where has this been all of my life? To think of the time it could have saved…sigh. Alas, now I can fold shirts like a pro! Thanks!
