In the latest TUBIE shirt ironing blog, we show you great tips and tricks for doing your laundry.
How to keep blouses on hangers
Are your silk blouses constantly slipping off the hanger? If you wrap household rubbers around the ends of the hanger, the garments will no longer slip off. If you want to air-dry tops, it is best to hang them on the hanger while they are still damp, as they will then dry particularly crease-free.
Smoothing shirt collars
With our TUBIE ironing dummy, the shirt collar will be nice and smooth when drying and ironing, but if you want to iron your collar in between, take a smoothing iron and set it to a low temperature. It should be absolutely free of hair and styling products. Simply clamp the collar between the iron and iron it on.
Laundry net for delicate clothing
Thin dresses, silk blouses, lace lingerie etc. should not simply be put in the washing machine, but in a special laundry net or simply in a jute bag. This will protect them from zippers on other items of clothing, etc.
Hand wash and dry in salad spinner
Have you briefly washed your bikini or swimming trunks by hand? With the salad spinner, you can get rid of most of the moisture before hanging them up and your clothes will dry faster.
Pimping the dryer
Sometimes the laundry simply won't dry in the dryer despite a few cycles. Simply add a dry towel to the damp clothes and you will see that the moisture is significantly less. However, you should remove the towel after 20 minutes
Tennis balls for fluffy laundry
Dryer sheets or dryer balls are supposed to dry the laundry in the dryer faster and prevent static build-up. However, you can just as easily put tennis balls wrapped in aluminum foil in the drum. Tennis balls work wonders for drying down comforters and pillows in particular, as they prevent the fluffy filling from clumping together.
