Drying clothes

At the end of every wash, put it on a separate spin cycle if you don’t already. It wrings the excess water out even more than the spin cycle included in the normal wash x

I use my conservatory and a dehumidifier x

Make sure you’re choosing the right cycle on your washing machine! Usually the smell is from detergent not getting fully rinsed out. If you’re choosing a quick wash that’s only meant to be for a few items of clothing so it’s not expecting you to put much detergent in and doesn’t give them a good rinse after washing. Have a read of your washing machine manual to find a better cycle, make sure you’re using the correct amount of detergent and not too much, and try doing an extra rinse cycle after your usual wash.
I always do an extra spin too to get all the excess water out before putting them on an airer x

Another vote for dehumidifier. Hang up clothes on an airer in bathroom with dehumidifier running and door shut

Thank you everyone!! I will throw it in another spin after each wash as that’s something I haven’t been doing 🫶🏻

We just use the airer or radiator (if it’s cold enough!) but we also use the scent booster pearls and do an extra spin after the first spin to make sure it’s super rinsed out! X

Airer and radiators

I’ve didn’t realise for ages I was using less detergent than recommended cos we have such hard water. So a full load of clothes always smelt a bit meh. Basically use more powder and now they smell lovely!

I do have a tumble dryer too but only use for bedding and towels, as I actually don’t like the smell it gives clothes 😅

I always do an extra high spin and then if weather is nice they go outside then onto airer if not straight onto the airer if need them quick I put the heating on and put them on the radiator

I do a separate spin after the cycle is finished to get any excess water out and then hang on the clothes horse with a dehumidifier on next to it. Clothes are usually dry in a few hours and smell like washing products
