Tips against wrinkles: You should hang the laundry on hangers to dry

Laundry

that is

particularly prone to

wrinkles

, such as shirts, should be

hung

to

dry

on a hanger.

First straighten the shirt a little by hand and simply hang the hanger on the clothesline or on a clothes rack.

Tips against wrinkles: Do not hang the laundry too close together to dry

A common mistake is packing too much on a drying rack.

You should not hang the

damp

laundry

too close together.

If there is not enough space between the clothes on the drying rack, not enough air will get through and the laundry will not dry as well.

If you

hang

the laundry

on a rack

to

dry

, do it offset instead of side by side.

Smaller pieces, such as socks or rags, should then be hung up in the free space between the larger pieces.

Tips against wrinkles: Use pegs to dry the laundry

Make sure that the

laundry

hangs

upside down

to

dry,

first and secondly as far down as possible.

Use clothespins for this.

For tops, the sleeves should point down, for trousers the waistband.

The garments shouldn't overlap too much.

For T-shirts and shirts, make sure that they are hung with the sleeves facing out.

Another tip: turn the laundry inside out and attach the clips to the seams to avoid marks.

Tips against wrinkles: Put the laundry in the right place to dry

When the sun is shining and it's warm,

dry

the

laundry

as possible outside - then it goes faster.

When it's cold, turning on the heater will help.

However, keep the window tilted open, otherwise mold may develop.
