Laundry 101

Laundry 101

A step-by-step guide on conquering the art of doing laundry.

In college, I called my mom daily. I was lost at doing a lot on my own and didn’t realize how much my parents did for me until they didn’t.

It is no secret that everyone hates doing laundry, or is it just me? It’s my arch nemesis, mainly because you do it weekly and it still seems to keep piling up. Isn’t there some fairy godmother that comes and does this stuff? Oh yeah, it was my mom – now it’s me and its always staring at me, judging me.

Stressing about how to do laundry should be the last thing on your mind. Who has time for that when you need to be worrying about your homework, right? Let’s be real, some of the biggest fears about doing laundry is shrinking your favorite top and dying everything pink.

Easily readable charts that outlined only the stuff I needed to know would have been helpful when I went off to college. I don’t own any dry-clean-only clothes and just needed enough unmentionables to keep me going.

Now that you have all our special secrets on how to wash your clothes down, you’ll want to have some modern ways to get your laundry to the washing machine. Being able to transport your dirty clothes and all your equipment down to the laundry mat is just as important as knowing how to wash them.
