Here's how to dry clothes without a dryer. I share all my top tips on how to use a drying rack to air dry your laundry after washing.
A lot of people like to use drying racks for more delicate items like wool, sweaters, and shirts. But it is also great for saving some money on the electric bill every month!
In this guide, I show you how to use the drying rack and some stuff you need to avoid. If you decide to not use a dryer, I recommend using some fabric softener so that your clothes don't feel so hard, since the centrifuge in the dryer tends to soften up the fabrics quite a bit.
Here are the things you will need to start air drying your clothes inside:

Great job, I see slot of these types of videos, first time to see you. No other video has explained this as well as you did. Thank you!
Wow thanks for the nice comment! I appreciate it. I'm glad the video was enjoyable :)
I just finished your linen washing video. I love linen clothes and stared replacing my wardrobe but i don't want to ruin the material and dry cleaning is expensive!! So, thank you for your videos
It's my pleasure! Thank you so much for the nice comment :D
I know that fabric softener helps prevent wrinkles in clothes, that it feels nice and smells good BUT it also helps to damage clothes faster as it also softens the fibers of the fabric and this makes it less resistant to wear and tear. So depending on the type of garment (personally none), we should not use fabric softener, to prevent it from tearing or breaking prematurely.
English is my second language and I used a translator because I couldn't explain it properly, I hope you can understand me well 😅

Sorry if I don't explain myself well, English is my second language 😅 But if you have questions please ask.
Our drier broke down today so than you for this video!!
I’m happy to hear that the video could help you. And I hope you get your drier working again soon!
@@Organizing-TV Well maybe I will start to dry all my clothes on hang dry from now on. Thanks again from Canada!
I love to use rack for drying clothes without a dryer! But here was a lot of new information for me!
Really Carl? I always figured you as more of a dryer type! Glad to hear you enjoyed the guide
cheers pal.can you teach me how to sweep a floor? thanks
Thanks for sharing with us! I wonder if that red drying rack is also available in the states to purchase?
No worries, I'm happy to help! As for the exact same drying rack I am not sure. But I did link the most similar products I could find on US Amazon in the videos description
As corona we can not go to dry cleaning so it was great thanks a lot
I'm glad to hear that it was helpful :) Stay safe
This is great advice for the use of hangers. I wanted to ask you that the type of hanger that you're using in 5:00 is it a strong plastic or is it felt material? I use to have plenty of felt black hangers and I didn't really find smooth black plastic hangers. Can you use either one or does it have to be specific to one of those?
I'm glad it was helpful :D That particular one is made from wood. I generally try to use those wide shouldered ones that are often used for jackets, but I think the ones you have will be sufficient
What I'm trying to find the answer to if how to prevent stiffness. When the clothes dry they almost could stand up on their own because they're so stiff.
Try some fabric softener

The vinegar is a tally good to clean the washing machine with.
Use less detergent to wash your clothes with.
@@marthaneal1988 you are right. Use less detergent & use white vinegar instead of fabric softener. Too much detergent & the use of fabric softener leaves a residue & that's why laundry dries stiff.
@@Organizing-TV For decades I would have agreed w/ you...but not any more. 🙂 It leaves residue & that's not good. Plain white vinegar is a great alternative. And most people use way too much detergent...that leaves residue, also.
How do you handle drying large articles such as king sized sheets or bath towels?
I generally hang them over multiple prongs to distribute the weight as they are drying. The towels only need a few, but for a sheet I'd probably use an entire rack. Just keep in mind that these big items will need circulation to dry at a reasonable speed
I'm using the side of my refrigerator
Haha I love the creativity!
Why is laying the clothes directly on top of the rack instead of on a towel a bad idea?
Fabric softener for what?
Keeps clothes from drying stiffness.
