Laundry is no more a boundary
”Grabbing her clothes and the towel, she took them to the laundry room… “(Every woman in the lockdown situation right now) Laundry is no more a boundary now!
Laundry can be frustrating even for a laundry enthusiast. Be it a housewife or a working professional not only a woman but also men are doing their laundry without their maid’s and helpers. It’s not a challenge but a tedious task.
It’s time consuming, unceasing and there is so much that can go wrong. But with a proper chronology and spacing of various clothing items this can be done.
They say
“Hold it up to the light, not a stain and shining light“
( Surf Washing Powder advertising slogan ) well, the slogan itself promotes the magic of surf washing powder.
There are some of the perks of laundry if known and understood. Let’s discuss them.
People generally find it a big deal when there are some dry cleaning disaster’s. Usually laundry is not a big deal but stains, material flaws makes it one big deal. dry cleaning is to
be done with a chill mode and under proper acknowledgement. Because once that favorite white shirt of yours is mixed with the other coloured clothing, there’s hardly any way to get rid of those stains.
A simple story
Speaking of which, I had faced a similar situation once, and I am sure many of you would relate to this. So, yeah. Once, I was having dinner with my friend’s and family, a get-together calls for some pretty outfit. I pulled out a white kurti of mine and flaunted it for the entire dinner until my cousin sitting right besides me spill a bowl of Green chutney on my white chikankari kurti, little did I know that it would be a moment of panic for me until my mom came with a liquid detergent and treated it with a soft brush using up and down motion.
So, that day she was a knight in a shining armor for me. I learned that now matter what stain, you need not worry about it. Because it just takes a few things to repair your favorite clothing and avoid such disaster’s.
Laundry services cleans up clothes and other kinds of materials better as well. Special designer dresses which we can’t risk on home dry cleaning, regular office outfits and etc, but what after that? Is the job done yet? NO! there is something more important after the laundry is done. Now let’s discuss more about that.
After the laundry is done. There are some key factors that are essential to know whether the clothing has been cleaned properly or not. Many of us aren’t aware of it because we never found doing laundry was that important. Rather, we never invested our time in knowing the correct ways of doing laundry and post laundry methods.
Below are some basic steps of post laundry.
STEP 1 : CHECKING OF STAINS
Go through the entire material and check whether there are any remains of a stain. If so, then pretreat it with a liquid laundry detergent using up and down motion. This is a primary solution to any stain.
STEP 2 : DRYING/IRONING
Drying and ironing the clothes takes most of the patience but it is worth the efforts.Also, Ironing clothes adds up to the dignity of a person.
STEP 3 : FOLDING
Folding clothes in a proper manner is one way to be neat and tidy.
STEP 4 : PACKAGING
Make a package.
And store the clothing in a clean and dry place.
Well, these are the key factors of post laundry. I assume every woman knows about it but wasn’t sure if they were doing it right. I learned a lot of things from my mom. Doing laundry is no big deal unless and until you know you’re doing it right. Some experiments fail, some actually work. I suggest trying experimenting. Because if not then you will end up being clueless and that is something every woman would stress about.
Know one thing that laundry is not a rocket science, it’s just a task which is tedious but
If these simple factors are taken care of then “laundry is no more a boundary.”
