a great sock matcher
Dear Readers,
I just had to share this with you.
To all those who hate to take time to match socks after washing.
I have come up with the best thing that I could of ever done. I took a toe sock and put a long narrow piece of card board down in the middle of it, from bottom to top, then I bought a box of safety pins from the dollar store, I opened up the pins and just weaved them in the fabric so they will stick open, I went through my drawers, and put a pin through both heals of the socks, and put in drawer, when I take out a pair, I put the pin in my sock thing that I have hanging up near my drawers. After I wear the socks, I put the pin back in and when it is time for laundry, I just through them in, so far the pins are holding, I then put or flip the socks that are still together on the clothes line. When they are dry, I put in basket, then I fold the sock together and put in the drawer for the next time that I use the socks. So the sock goes from the laundry basket, to washer, to clothes line, to drawer, with no work. It is fantastic!! no more taking a half hour to sort and match. If you don't have a toe sock, a regular one that you have lost the pair, works great also. Oh by the way, I haven't lost a sock yet!

Great idea dear Brenda!
ReplyDeleteVery creative. It's amazing to me how a simple item as a sock can disappear! One of those Murphey's Law sort of things1
