How to Properly Fold Your Laundry

Updated: Jun 14, 2023


Folding laundry is an essential task that can help to keep your clothes looking neat and organized. However, many people struggle with folding their laundry properly. In this blog post, we will discuss how to properly fold your laundry.

Materials:

  • Clean laundry

Instructions:


1. Sort Your Laundry


Separate your laundry into piles according to type, such as shirts, pants, and towels. This will make it easier to fold each item properly.


2. Smooth Out the Wrinkles


Before folding each item, smooth out any wrinkles by pulling and tugging on the fabric. This will make it easier to create neat folds.


3. Fold T-Shirts and Tops


Start by folding T-shirts and tops in half vertically, with the sleeves touching. Then, fold the shirt in half horizontally, bringing the bottom hem up to the collar. Finally, fold the shirt in half again, creating a square shape.


4. Fold Pants

To fold pants, lay them flat on a surface and smooth out any wrinkles. Then, fold one leg over the other, creating a crease down the center of the pants. Fold the pants in half, with the legs together. If desired, you can fold the pants in half again to create a smaller, more compact size.


5. Fold Towels

Lay the towel flat on a surface and smooth out any wrinkles. Fold the towel in half vertically, with the two shorter sides together. Then, fold the towel in half again horizontally, bringing the bottom edge up to the top edge. Finally, fold the towel in half one more time, creating a square shape.


6. Store Your Folded Laundry

Once you have folded your laundry, store it in a drawer or on a shelf. If desired, you can also use dividers or organizers to keep your clothing neatly arranged.



In conclusion, properly folding your laundry requires sorting your laundry, smoothing out wrinkles, folding T-shirts and tops, folding pants, folding towels, and storing your folded laundry. By following these steps, you can keep your clothing looking neat and organized, and make the most of your closet or dresser space.
