Introduction:
Aluminum foil isn’t just for wrapping leftovers—it can be a powerful tool in your laundry routine too! Many households are now placing aluminum foil balls in their washing machines and dryers to reduce static cling, soften fabrics, and even cut down on drying time. It’s a simple, eco-friendly alternative to chemical-laden dryer sheets, and the results are surprisingly effective.
Ingredients:
1 sheet of aluminum foil (about 12–18 inches long)
Laundry detergent (your usual choice)
Clothes or laundry items
(Optional) Essential oils (if you want a light scent)
Instructions:
Tear off a sheet of aluminum foil, around 12 to 18 inches long.
Crumple it tightly into a ball. Make sure it’s compact enough to hold its shape during the wash and dry cycles.
Place the aluminum foil ball directly into the dryer with your wet clothes.
