Between sheets, towels and dirty clothes, holiday feedback often rhymes with mountain of laundry. But a resourceful mom found a simple and easy tip to get out of it without stress.
The return of vacation is often synonymous with chore side household chores. After the suitcases to be emptied, you quickly end up with a pile of washing linen. The machines are linked, the stands overflow, and the house becomes a battlefield. For families, it’s even worse: you have to count everyone’s clothes, sheets, bath towels and sometimes even those of beach. This is what Marine, a mother of two children, came back to a week at the campsite. “We were four, with a lot of dirty laundry, and I already saw the delay accumulating,” she says. Funny return to reality after the holidays. But instead of being overwhelmed, she had a simple and terribly effective idea. Good news: everyone can do the same.
Because what takes time with linen is not only machines: it is also drying. When you have a small house or an apartment, it is impossible to extend everything at a time. You have to wait for it to dry, then restart another tour. Result: we spend several days, even a week, catch up with everything. To avoid that, Marine found the parade and her idea can inspire more than one family. She simply went to the laundromat and used several machines at the same time, then put everything on the dryer on site. In an hour and a half, all the laundry was made. “I folded everything on site, and it was finished. No wet linen to manage at home, no frames to organize,” she explains. Save time, space and mental load.
And to reduce the return of vacation again, remember to sort the laundry directly when making the suitcases: a bag for dirty, one for the own. You can also directly sort by colors so that you only have to slide everything into the machine. You will save time when you get home.
Finally, why not make a machine during the holidays if the campsite or the accommodation allows it? The secret is to anticipate. Like Marine, you will see that the linen will no longer spoil the end of the holidays.
