  *One thing I didn’t note is how to take care of delicates such as wool, silk, and leather which aren’t Starboost safe! In a pt. 2, I’ll go over hand washing, finishing, and other laundry things I didn’t go over in this video. <br><br>Other than that, hope you enjoy the video 😇🤍

  Honestly I really need someone to teach me basic adulting tasks. Parents were... not the best at helping me. 😕

  Don&apos;t forget, you should never close your washer&apos;s door immediately after using it because it will grow mold. You should leave it open until it has had time to dry, and the same goes for the slider you put the detergent in. Let both dry over night.

  i have 1 tip:<br>get a laundry basket that has holes so it&apos;s breathable and doesn&apos;t stink up the area before you get the chance to wash

  I&apos;m a peer mentor for freshmen at my university, I&apos;ll definitely share this video with them! I remember during my freshman year, so many of us were lost because not everyone&apos;s families taught them how. Since you do have to pay for every load(washing and drying separately) at my university, I often just put darks and lights together(unless it was heavily soiled).

  Let me just say, the presentation of this video is superb. As someone with ADHD, I find it really hard to do mundane tasks, but you make learning about it so aesthetic and calming that it seems kind of fun! For the first time in my life Im excited to do laundry.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI36DiRaXcc&amp;t=263">4:23</a> hydrogen peroxide can remove most food and other organic stains as well, not just blood. I eat on my bed since I live in a small dorm with no table to eat at and have had strawberry, soy sauce, and chocolate stains on a white cotton blanket and just pouring on some hydrogen peroxide removed the stains after sitting for 5 or so minutes.

  Here are a few things that may or may not work for you:<br>-for folding, I like to military roll all my shirts and sort by white, black, and all other colours into bins with dividers. It may stretch things out tho so ymmv<br>-my mom mentioned also sorting by texture to prevent smooth things from pilling from fluffy things, so this can help if you need to make your loads smaller for your washing machine size<br>-I do my laundry cycles whilst I also do the rest of my chores, so I put the first load in then do a lil surface clean, a vacuum, and take out the garbage <br>-if you struggle a bit, done &gt; perfect. It&apos;s okay to baby step it!
