IT can be incredibly difficult to get clothes dry indoors when it's cold outside. <\/p>\n

But one laundry pro has shared her genius hack to help them dry faster and, as an added bonus, it helps reduce wrinkling too. <\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

All you need to do is give the clothes a vigorous shake when you get them out of the washing machine. <\/p>\n

The shaking technique helps to "relax the fibres" in the clothes, which speeds up the drying process and reduces creasing.<\/p>\n

Fabric care expert Mary Marlowe Leverette also shared how to hang the clothes on your airer to get the optimum results. <\/p>\n

When it comes to trousers, you want to match up the inseams and then "hang them from the dryer rod with the waist down". <\/p>\n

"Clip the shoulders of shirts and tops to one of the dryer rods with pegs," she added. <\/p>\n

Bedsheets and blankets should be folded into halves or thirds, and then draped "smoothly over the widest dryer rod".<\/p>\n

Use pegs to hang towels and tea towels from the airer, or fold them in half over the rod. <\/p>\n

And with bras, you want to "reshape the cups" before hanging them over one of the airer rods to dry. <\/p>\n

It's also a good idea to utilise your washing machine as much as possible before hanging up your wet clothes. <\/p>\n

"Check the\u00a0spin cycle setting\u00a0on your washer," Mary told The Spruce. <\/p>\n

"The higher the setting, the faster the spin and the more moisture that is removed."<\/p>\n

And for hand-washed items, you can place them on a thick towel, before rolling the towel up to "absorb as much excess water as possible before hanging the garment and the towel to dry", Mary explained. <\/p>\n

Mary also suggested adding a dehumidifier or fan near your wet washing to speed up the drying process. <\/p>\n

"Improve the air circulation by adding a fan or dehumidifier to the drying area, turning on a bathroom vent fan, or opening windows to increase airflow," she said. <\/p>\n

"In the winter months, place a portable drying rack near a heating vent."<\/p>\n

Remember to also keep the airer in the middle of the room if possible.<\/p>\n

"Place it away from walls to prevent the moisture from being trapped," she said. <\/p>\n

"This helps reduce the chance of mould and mildew forming."<\/p>\n

In terms of sticking to a laundry schedule, Mary noted that it depends on the amount of people in the house. <\/p>\n

Understandably, those with more children or babies end up doing more frequent wash loads. <\/p>\n

"To prevent your home from being covered with drying clothes, wash a load of laundry weekly and put away the freshly dried clothes as you hang the freshly washed load," she concluded. <\/p>\n
