Get Organized: Managing Laundry
How can I get a grip on my laundry? It's always looming in my mind and it's never all the way done. HELP!
Stop doing laundry constantly. The key is to designate specific days you do laundry each week, and only do laundry on those days(e.g., Wednesday and Saturday). Give each person in the family a separate laundry basket—(or two: one for whites and one for colors) and try doing laundry by person, so you have less separating pre- and post-wash. And for anyone old enough to open a dresser drawer ... let them put their own laundry away.
Happy organizing!
