    Great tips on folding clothes. I personally like to fold my towels in half and then in thirds because they will stack better in the small cabinet that I store them in. I fold everything else basically the same as you show in the video and have for years because it's the easiest way for me to fold. Thanks for all of your great videos and I look forward to the next video!

    OMG THAT TRICK WITH THE MAGAZINE!!! So helpful!! I've been struggling for years on how to fold those shirts for my dad. Gonna try it on the next load of laundry!

    • @lisaafong1111
      @lisaafong1111 9 років тому +2

      Sara1227 Instead of a magazine I use a cheap plastic 9" x 12" clip board. I find it easier since the clip board is sturdy and not flimsy like a magazine. Since the plastic is sturdy and smooth it slides out of shirts very easy. I keep the clip board on a shelf in the laundry where I do my folding. I use it to fold all my shirts, t-shirts, sweaters etc that way every thing is folded the same size.

    • @Sara-jc4xw
      @Sara-jc4xw 9 років тому

      Great idea also! I don't have a 9" x 12" clip board, but your idea is just BRILLIANT! I think using anything with a rectangular/square shape would work perfectly :)

      I think even the flip fold device, is also at the dollar places.

    you're my new hero. I SO wish I'd found u sooner! I'm in the process of moving now and ended up throwing everything from my wreck of a home into storage and plan to read Marie Kondo's first book while I find my new space. hopefully that way when I'm unpacking I can throw tons of stuff out so I don't end up living in such a cluster next time. plus I'm going to read everything on your website and I already subscribed here and now I'm going to follow u everywhere else! I hated the disorganization and clutter but bc I didn't know how to fix it, I just sat amongst it cursing!!! lol. never again. Do you guys have any articles or videos on moving and/or unpacking and organizing in a new space? that wud be really helpful to keep in mind while apt hunting... ur brilliant BTW, I 💗 u! 😘

  • @jessssssgames
    @jessssssgames 8 років тому

    I probably said this before, but I love your folding videos. I used the one for regular shirts, pants, undergarments, and found that I had more space in them to store hats/beanies, and had a full extra drawer to put other things in. These really work and I really just want to thank you.

    • @duquette6

    @Looloowa74 9 років тому +3

    Hi! I like my towels with smooth edges. I first fold the towel in thirds rather than half like u did in length. then I go ahead and fold the rest of the way like u did. It just hides the edges so they look smooth. And yes I get excited over hotel spas and rooms as well. Something about well folded towels that make me happy.

      Tanusha Rughoobur Ikr I work at kohl’s.That one method where she grabbed the corners of the shirt and pulled would be way faster once mastered. Than using the method that involves laying shirt flat and folding each side and sleeve on the shirt than folding the bottom up and flipping over so that the print shows.

    The art of folding our things in exchange for living our lives as fast as possible has been lost. My mom always folded our clothes, towels, sheets, (yes even the fitted sheets) so beautifully. She tried to pass that on to me. Yes it takes a little extra time but its worth it.

    @grlkckbxr 9 років тому

    I love your vids and tips! I don't usually insist there is one right way to do something, but towels! NO! Thirds lengthwise, then thirds again. You have the same round edge in front and it hides the edges on both sides. Most importantly, when you take them out and hang them on the towel bar, they are symmetrical with no edges showing except the trimmed edge on the bottom (if there is one). Thanks for all your help! I'm trying to print out and put together a "book" of all your stuff for my kid heading off to college.

    @EEN63 8 років тому +1

    Melissa, while Chad "appeared" to have won the folding contest, I would like to see what those T-shirts looked like weeks after they've been folded. I would think yours would look less wrinkled, as Chad just flipped in the sides without shaking or smoothing out anything. So the real winner is Melissa as far as I can tell... and only a couple of shirts slower in fold time but much neater and more wearable without needing to iron (and that's always a winner in my book!)! However, I must say I enjoyed Chad's victory celebration. He's a funny guy!
    I enjoyed the video, regardless of who won. Also, I'm all about the folded side of my towels showing in the linen closet. However, if you fold it lengthwise in thirds, then in half, and in half again, you only have one side with raw edges. When it comes time to hang your towel on the towel rod, you only unfold the last fold and it's ready to hang easily and beautifully. Additionally, I fold my TP into points when I have company too! The devil is in the details!!! Well done!
