10 Fantastic Tips for Perfectly Folding Your Clothes!

I must admit that folding is NOT one of my favorite chores. Not only is it hard to do it just right, but it's time consuming. Also, if I did something wrong, my clothes all come our wrinkled and I have to fetch the iron to make them presentable. Well, I've done some research, and I found some really ingenius ways to fold clothes I never thought about. Pay close attention to number 7, I think it's absolutely brilliant!



1. Folding socks the right way
 


Did you know folding socks one inside the other ruins the elastic band of the sock. Yep, it isn't the use or the laundry, it's this kind of folding that slowly ruins your socks. You can solve this problem with this simple folding technique. Just put the socks one on the other in the shape of a plus (+) and let them hug each other so you create a square that doesn't stretch the sock and ruins the elasticity.

2. Folding a buttoned shirt



My mother taught me a technique to fold a buttoned shirt, but even she didn't know how to make the shirt look like it had just left the store. To really fold a buttoned shirt perfectly, all you really need to do is put a magazine under the back of the collar, and follow these instructions (at the end of which you can take the magazine out).

4. Folding a shirt for vertical storage



I prefer to store my son's shirts vertically in a drawer instead of horizontally in the closet. Why? Because that way he doesn't make a mess every time he wants to get a specific shirt that hides under the others. Just pull the one you want without destroying the work we've put into folding the rest of the clothes. If you suffer from the same problem, this is the perfect solution for you.

Is it a shirt, is it pants? How do you fold this thing? If someone knows a better, simpler way than this, I'll be glad to hear about it. But this is the best way I know, I wish someone had told me this when my son was still a baby.

7. Folding a shirt on a hanger



Do you have a hanger closet in your house that is exploding with clothes? They wrinkle each other and when we want to get one out we suddenly find that its sleeves aren't really as smooth as they were when we put it in the closet. That's when we need to get out an iron and start working, which usually happens when we're in a rush! To avoid this situation, just fold the shirt and hang it in the following way.

8. Folding pants on a hanger



Like the shirt, same goes for the pants, and you also want them wrinkle-free, as well as avoiding the possibility of them sliding off the hanger. Just put one half on one side of the hanger and the other half on the other side. Before you begin, make sure to straighten the inner stitches of the pants so they face the other side exactly.

9. Folding a fitted sheet



Fitted sheets are hard to perfectly fold because they have no corners, but that doesn't mean it's an impossible task. All you need to do is ignore the rubber and create the corners yourself. Just follow this guide.

10. Folding clothes to store in a suitcase



Some people fold clothes to pack in a suitcase as they would do for the closet, which is a bad mistake to make, because this method uses too much space and causes the clothes to wrinkle from all the other things we've put in the suitcase. Other prefer to roll the clothes, which isn't a bad way to go, until I found this method, which allows you to pack all your clothes into any suitcase easily and in just a few minutes time.

Start by picking a spot that will be the main axis of your folding. Proceed to lay the shirts one on top of the other above and below the point. Put the pants one on top of the other at a 90 degree angle to the shirts, also from both sides of the point, and put the socks and underwear in a pile on top of the central point. Then just fold all of them one on top of the other according to the order in which you put them, and roll them until you've packed all the clothes in one pile. It is also recommended to put all these clothes together in a bag to prevent the possibility of them being dirtied by any cream or perfume you have in your suitcase.
