I don't use dryer sheets for every load I do. I don't use them with cloth diapers because they are a no-no and I don't usually use them with Eleanor's clothes, but I love how they make my towels smell and the subtle scent they leave on out clothes.
But I love Purex products and so when given the opportunity to try the new Purex Crystals Dryer Sheets I was on board with it.

| Lavender Blossom |
Once the laundry was dry I could still smell fragrance, but it was faint. I might be strange, but I actually think I might use two because I kind of like that fresh smell and fragrances have never bothered me. I'd only do this if I was just washing my clothes or towels because I'm not so sure Rob wants to go to work smelling like Lavender Blossoms.
I think that smell/scent issue aside they did what they are made to do. My towels and shirts felt softer and I didn't have to peel them apart to fold and put them away. I even stuffed some into my sheets when I put those away so the next time I make the bed the smell should be there and make crawling into a freshly made bed (which is one of the best feelings) so much more enjoyable.

ReplyDeleteI buy a lot of old books and sometimes they smell kinda funky. So I put them in a box with some dryer sheets and seal the box up for a couple months. When I open the box the books smell much better.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite nontraditional way to use dryer sheets (and re-use!) is to toss a sheet in my dirty clothes hamper. It's an easy, lazy way to keep everything smelling good til I'm ready to wash them. (More crucial for clothes that have gotten REALLY yucky, like from gardening, or biking.)
