Mum's clever clothes drying hack gets laundry dry in winter without 'damp smell'
Share:
A mum has revealed a laundry drying solution that'll end your winter woes, ensuring clothes dry rapidly without picking up a "horrible damp smell". With the winter chill making it tough to air-dry laundry and constant rain making outdoor drying impossible, many find their garments taking on a musty odour if they’re not dried promptly. But don't fret, because one savvy mum, Christina Jacobs - known as @chrissy.j.xx on TikTok - has shared the ultimate hack for fast-drying clothes indoors without the sniffles.
In a viral TikTok, Christina reveals her simple yet ingenious method: she points a small electric heating fan at her clothes airer, drapes everything with a bed sheet, creating a cosy cocoon that accelerates the drying process. According to Christina, this technique gets your laundry bone-dry in just one and a half hours, leaving them smelling splendid. Her followers can't get enough of this hack, pouring into the comments section to call it "brilliant" and express their eagerness to try it out.
One user gushed: "Loving this," while another exclaimed: "I must try this, I didn't know it dried the clothes that quick." Other users have suggested alternative methods to dry clothes quickly, such as using a dehumidifier instead of a fan, or simply placing them in an unused room with the windows open for ventilation, which prevents the clothes from developing a musty odour.
