Ah, the chilling grip of winter has us firmly in its clutches, enveloping us in its cold embrace. As we huddle indoors, sipping our steaming cups of tea, we can't help but notice our electricity bills reaching for the sky. In times like these, who wouldn't want to find clever ways to stretch those hard-earned dollars a little further?

Speaking of challenges, let's talk about laundry. Isn't it maddening how clothes seem to take forever to dry during the colder months? It's like time itself has slowed down, teasing us as we wait for that load of laundry to finally be ready.

We all know that convenience is absolutely essential, especially when the chilly winter weather creeps in and leaves our clothes damp and uncomfortable. Luckily, there's someone out there who understands our winter woes and is ready to come to the rescue with some fantastic drying tricks.

Meet Anita Birges, a professional organiser from Sydney, who is here to share her three ultimate drying tips that will revolutionise the way we tackle laundry during the colder months.

Anita recently took to Instagram to reveal her straightforward yet highly effective washing and drying advice, guaranteed to significantly reduce drying time.

'Is there anything more frustrating than trying to get your clothes and towels to dry faster in winter,' Birges lamented in her Instagram post. 'Here are a few of my favourite drying hacks!'

Anita's first tip is a breeze! All you need is something you probably have in your linen closet right now–a fluffy, dry towel. That's it! It's as easy as can be.

'Grab a nice fluffy dry towel, stick it in with your wet washing, and it will cut the drying time down by about a third,' she advised.

'Adding a dry towel into the drying mix absorbs excess moisture and speeds up the process. An added bonus is that the towel can also fluff up and soften your clothes.'

Anita's second tip revolved around a nifty little product from the Australian company Allsmalls. It's a mini clothes hanger that easily hooks onto any pole, just like the ones you find on airers. What's the magic behind it? Well, it lets you hang small items like socks without taking up precious space.

Say goodbye to those pesky pegs because this $20 contraption eliminates the need for them altogether. And that's not all—it also liberates a ton of room on your airer! All you have to do is attach it to the side using the handy silicon straps, and voila!

With this ingenious little device, laundry time just got a whole lot easier and more organised. No more missing socks or cluttered drying spaces. It's a small but mighty solution that brings a touch of simplicity to your everyday routine.

​

Anita also had some great advice for keeping your towels fresh and dry after a shower. She had a simple solution to a common annoyance we all face. You know that feeling when you step into the shower only to find that your towel from the previous day is still damp?

According to her, the secret is to avoid hanging up a wet bath towel using hooks. She pointed out that there's no air circulation when you do that, and your towel will start to smell.

So what's the alternative? She suggested spreading your towel out on a rail instead. By doing this, you allow air to flow around it, helping it dry quicker.

'If you don't have the rail or the space in your bathroom, try spreading one towel across two hooks for better ventilation and faster drying,' she added, explaining: 'The longer your towel stays damp, the longer the yeasts, bacteria, moulds, and viruses remain alive and stay active.'

Key Takeaways

• Professional organiser Anita Birges has given her top three tips for drying laundry faster in winter.
• Her first tip involves using a dry, fluffy towel added to the wet washing to absorb excess moisture and cut drying time by a third.
• Birges' second tip involves using a mini hanger from Australian company Allsmalls, which can be attached to any pole and holds small items like socks, saving valuable space and removing the need for pegs.
• The last piece of advice is to avoid using hooks for hanging wet bath towels to improve airflow for faster drying. Instead, spread the towel out on a rail or across two hooks.

We hope that these handy tips from Anita will add a little sunshine to your winter days and make your laundry routine a little less burdensome. Remember, staying warm and comfortable during the winter months is key, so don't let the laundry get you down.

We hang out towels on the clothes line each morning which allows them to dry

We hang our towels on the clothes line each morning which helps dry the towels much quicker and more effectively than leaving them in the bathroom,.

 

[Jennylolo]

I only have my towel, so dries easily.

 

[Gsr]

I rarely use the clothes dryer, just hang washing on the airer for a couple of days if it is raining, otherwise it goes outside on the clothesline.

On Wet Days I put my clothes on clothes airer and racks and put in spare room with fan on.

 

[Maudy]

On Wet days I put my clothes on an clothes airer and racks and put them in the spare room with fan on. I don't have a clothes dryer as I think they are too expensive to run.

 

[lAURY]

Never use a dryer. Always use Mrs pegs clothes line and place under the alfresco. If sunny place in the sun. Might take a couple of days if its raining, but clothes always smell fresh.

 

[SGH]

This isn't rocket science, we have these persons that make a video, call themselves an expert at "influencing" and then instructs us how to hang out our washing and towels. And they also waste electricity by using a dryer, our members have better ideas.
