Hang washed clothes outdoors whenever possible, mainly summer in our neck of the woods. In winter, hang them on wooden clothes’ horses in front of our wood stove or in front of our little Eden Pure heater (which saves us money too). Only use the dryer to fluff wrinkles out of “permanent press”, 20 minutes on low setting, but take out before “cooling” which can reset some wrinkles. Ironing in our little house with many animals is an impossibly complicated affair, so I’ve worked out the above formula for as little impact as possible on the environment while still looking presentable (at least in our rural community!).
