Have 10 Minutes? Gather Up Jackets and Winter Accessories and Give Them a Wash

I'm good at doing laundry on a regular basis, but I'm not good at washing jackets, gloves, hats, and scarves. I forget. Not having my own washer and dryer to do laundry is a pain, so I try to do as little laundry as possible so that I'm not spending so much money.

For some reason I don't think to wash jackets and accessories. I wear a jacket everyday, but because it's not for extended amounts of time, I just don't think they're dirty and to wash them. (I'm sure if you have young kids, you probably wash your jackets often.) Forgive me if this seems silly.

So today, take 10 minutes to load the washer and let it run, put everything in the dryer, and then hang everything back up. You'll be glad you did!

If you don't need to wash jackets, wash boots instead. I know mine need a good scrub!

  1. Thanks for the reminder! I have a box of gloves, hats, and scarves that I need to wash by hand. I just filled up the tub with water and the right detergent. Everything is soaking now and I'll get to scrubbing as soon as I'm done reading blogs! :)

  2. Today I am washing towels, and the bathroom rugs. Other times when I do regular laundry I always forget to wash these too. But since the house is clean they needed to be switched and washed. Sometimes I wish laundry will just do itself.

  3. This is so true; I always forget the jackets. I also forget all the little blankets throughout the house without a definitive home.
