Missing socks, no more!!!

Do you have issues with losing socks in the wash? I know that I did! No matter how hard I tried, I ALWAYS lost socks in the wash! I would do that particular load, which had both socks when I started the load, only to lose one sock when I pulled everything out of the dryer. I even resorted to looking in the space between the washer and dryer, no such luck.My poor husband was quickly running out of dress socks and I was tired of buying them over and over!

My cousin mentioned safety pinning the socks together and then washing them, well, this worked for one wash. I unpinned the socks, only to find big gaping holes and then would have to throw the socks away. Finally, I decided to buy some small lingerie bags and hang them above our laundry hampers. My fmaily puts their socks in them together and lo and behold, they come out of the wash together. You can typically fit three pairs of adult socks, six pairs of kids socks and countless baby socks and it works!

So, if you are tired of losing socks in the wash, give this a try. Also to find the smaller lingerie bags, try Dollar Tree, that’s where I got mine.
