Are vacuum bags for storing clothes really that useful? What can help you dry delicate fabrics? Let\u2019s learn the answers to&nbsp;all of&nbsp;these questions and find out what we\u2019ve been doing wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will remind you about the most popular mistakes we&nbsp;make when washing, drying, and storing clothes that make them look bad and not last as&nbsp;long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Laundry mistakes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Not taking the degree of&nbsp;dirt into account<\/strong>. Very dirty pieces of&nbsp;clothing should be&nbsp;washed separately from relatively clean ones because for every single situation you need a&nbsp;different amount of&nbsp;water. If&nbsp;you don\u2019t follow this rule, over time, white clothes will become grey or&nbsp;yellow, and colored clothes will lose their color.<\/li><li><strong>Not sorting clothing correctly<\/strong>. Experts&nbsp;recommend&nbsp;washing small clothes with big ones. This allows clothes to&nbsp;move around the inside of&nbsp;the machine more freely which makes the effectiveness of&nbsp;washing better.<\/li><li><strong>Not adjusting the water temperature<\/strong>. Detergents are most effective in&nbsp;warm and hot water. Cold water should be&nbsp;used only for washing clothes that are not very dirty.<\/li><li><strong>Not turning cotton and wool clothes inside out<\/strong>. Because of&nbsp;the friction with other items in&nbsp;the wash, lint may appear on&nbsp;these clothes. It&nbsp;might be&nbsp;hard to&nbsp;remove, so&nbsp;it\u2019s better to&nbsp;prevent it&nbsp;from happening in&nbsp;the first place.<\/li><li><strong>Not using washing bags for underwear and socks<\/strong>. Buying a&nbsp;bag for delicates won\u2019t just save your time because you won\u2019t have to&nbsp;sort the clothes after washing, but also these delicate clothes won\u2019t stretch and tear as&nbsp;easily.<\/li><li><strong>Using a&nbsp;fabric softener when washing sportswear<\/strong>. Most modern athletic clothing is&nbsp;made with special fabrics that make sweat dry faster. Fabric softeners may leave a&nbsp;film on&nbsp;the material that will negate the abilities of&nbsp;this type of&nbsp;fabric.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drying mistakes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Drying swimsuits on&nbsp;a&nbsp;radiator or&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;dryer<\/strong>. The elasticity of&nbsp;a&nbsp;swimsuit can be&nbsp;damaged by&nbsp;heat, so&nbsp;right after washing&nbsp;it, just place somewhere it&nbsp;can dry without any heat.<\/li><li><strong>Not using a&nbsp;coat hanger to&nbsp;dry shirts and other clothes<\/strong>. In&nbsp;this case, you should choose wooden hangers: the clothes won\u2019t lose their shape, they won\u2019t stretch, and there won\u2019t be&nbsp;any wrinkles.<\/li><li><strong>Hanging woolen and knitwear<\/strong>. Clothes made of&nbsp;natural stretchy materials should be&nbsp;dried on&nbsp;a&nbsp;table or&nbsp;a&nbsp;flat surface. You can put a&nbsp;sheet under them to&nbsp;protect the table.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storing mistakes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Using vacuum bags for far too long<\/strong>. Plastic bags are great for storing clothes for a&nbsp;short time or&nbsp;when transporting them, but they may damage your clothes if&nbsp;you use them too often. Clothes need a&nbsp;natural temperature and enough ventilation in&nbsp;order to&nbsp;help the fabric keep its qualities and appearance.<\/li><li><strong>Storing dirty clothes<\/strong>. Washing clothes before storing them for a&nbsp;long period of&nbsp;time can prevent the reproduction of&nbsp;bacteria and decrease the chances of&nbsp;parasites appearing. This is&nbsp;especially true for sportswear. After heavy workouts, you should wash your clothes as&nbsp;fast as&nbsp;you can. If&nbsp;you ignore this rule, your sportswear may lose its qualities and its appearance.<\/li><li><strong>Hanging sweaters and knitwear in&nbsp;a&nbsp;closet<\/strong>. Even if&nbsp;you find the right size hanger, you still won\u2019t be&nbsp;able to&nbsp;avoid the deformation of&nbsp;your clothes if&nbsp;you keep them on&nbsp;hangers. It&nbsp;is&nbsp;best if&nbsp;you have a&nbsp;separate shelf for sweaters and cardigans.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bonus: Effective ways to&nbsp;hide sweat stains<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In&nbsp;hot weather, there is&nbsp;a&nbsp;chance that sweat stains will appear under our armpits. They make&nbsp;us feel really uncomfortable, but there are very simple ways to&nbsp;avoid them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Buy dress shields. They are pads that absorb moisture from under your arms. Some types of&nbsp;shields can even be&nbsp;sewn into the clothing.<\/li><li>Cut a&nbsp;panty liner in&nbsp;half, put some adhesive on&nbsp;the armpit of&nbsp;the shirt you are wearing and stick the piece of&nbsp;the liner to&nbsp;the arm. Repeat this with the other side and you are safe for the whole day!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Do&nbsp;you know any other useful tips on&nbsp;extending the life of&nbsp;clothes?<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do&nbsp;you save time when organizing clothes after washing them?
