I saw your plug for salt. My mother-in-law told me years ago to soak new dark/bright clothing items individually in cold salt water, adding a handful or two of salt and leave for 15 to 30 minutes. Then add to the wash and the salt sets the color. Her other daughter-in-law soaked some orange volleyball shorts for her daughter and by the end of the season, those were the only shorts on the team that were the original color.

Love your fabric softener idea, was life changing for me. I have been using that from the first time you mentioned in one of your videos. Since then I have convinced my Mom and my brother in law to do so as well. Yes, lavender is the greatest, although during Christmas time I use Christmasy scents. 😊
Thanks

For anyone using portable washers - I have the Panda portable (11 lb capacity) and i've found that those things are very finicky when it comes to lint. It will error out all the time if you use liquid detergent. At first i thought it was a manufacturer's defect, but started trying everything i could. On a second floor apartment with no laundry hook-ups, and i DON'T do laundromats. Anyway - white vinegar finally got it back in tip top shape, cleared anytime it would clog, and it works everytime now! I love how much it softens the clothes, too. I use a cup of white vinegar per wash, and 10-15 drops of essential oil (sometimes a blend of half tea-tree, half lavender). If i do use laundry soap, I add about 10 drops of castille soap, and no regular laundry detergent. Sparkly clean every time and the washer now works great. I love using white vinegar, it saved my little Panda portable washer and i like how it softens my clothes. Also, I use a mix of 1c hot water and a few tbsp. of borax for the whites, I like how it works in place of bleach.

Sweat stains! A new phenomenon in my life. My whole body chemistry changed after menopause. Not underarm stains. I get them around the neckline of my white tees. I've tried everything. I hope u can help. Thanks for your always awesome cleaning tips!

I'm doing laundry right now. I actually really enjoy it. The only part I don't like is folding the clothes afterwards,

[cathyakins]

This is great about the laundry. Getting it done is my problem. Lol. Thanks. Really enjoy this program.

The sneakers in the dryer tip? Mind. Blown.

Question - what do I do about lint on my clothing? It's happening every wash now. Thank you in advance!

love love love your advice - however most of its for folks with their own washer / dryers - any chance you could do a video or two on options for folks using "shared" / "public" laundry machines - thnx
