Just like my friend the Blah Blah Blahger , folding laundry has never been one of my strongest Homemaker skills…To help out just a little Suzie Says:
“Get all the same socks.”
If you have all the same style there is no need for sorting.
If you have all the same style there is no need for sorting.
It is awesome and a huge time saver!
This can also be a money saver: You are getting all your socks at the same time so they wear out at the same time. You can wait for a sale or buy in bulk.
Growing up, my socks always wore out around Christmas time.
To this day Hot Hubby and I know one of the Christmas gifties from my parents will be a whole new batch of fresh fluffy socks!
Here are the Cora’s unmatched socks… 6 of them are white but different styles!
I’ve done this with my socks, Hot Hubby’s socks and Eli’s socks.
After the above folding session I did it with Cora’s socks too!

Ugh, this reminds me that I have to go through everyone's socks and buy new ones. Fun, fun. I know what I am doing this weekend. Yay for me.

I actually threw away a whole bag of socks and did this–started fresh. It has saved me a lot of time
the BLAH BLAH BLAHger says
Ahhhh, the socks. What a super easy idea!!! You don't even want to know what I do with mine…but let's just say there's no folding or matching involved. Ha!

I'm loving summer because the kids wear sandals mostly because I dont feel like dealing with socks 🙂 however M&J has a special little cubby in their dresser with all unmatched socks..ridiculous and yet I have no desire to even open that drawer up and fix it 🙂

great idea! i hang to socks like they are SO expensive, but when they cause me trauma in the laundry folding dept, i might just have to ditch a few for sameness!
