Do you fold your laundry and put it away....

Has soon has it is dry?

Often mine stays on the clothesracks for a couple of days. Once it's folded though it is put away.

You?

It stays on the drying rack a day or two..then it is put away. (I will also iron before putting it away if needed.) I can't stand laundry just sitting around now....and I used to be the queen of leave it sitting. Funny how you change as you grow up.

I'm working on it. I'm getting better at getting it put away directly after drying, however, I'm not quite there yet with every load.

My boyfriend does the laundry and folds it then puts it on our beds (my side of the bed and my daughters bed) to be put away before bed that night. He is VERY specific in folding his clothes and prefers to do all of ours instead of accepting my folding techniques.

It's folded and put away as soon as it is dried. Hubby and I share the job.

until dry (or a day or 2) when I put them away. Take care and God bless.

I fold and either put it away, or put it in piles for the boys to put away.....course, as I type this, I see a few stray peices from the last load that are still folded on the couch - I'll deal with them tomorrow!!

Our laundry tends to hang around for a while. Especially DD's her little clothes take forever to match up and hang the outfits...dress, bloomers, shorts, top...eeek!! Drives me nuts.

I put it away right after it's dry, I just don't like laundry sitting out.

I always fold and put up the laundry as so as it is done. I can't stand a job half completed. Since I am banned from using the iron, Dw usually saves up the ironing until there is enough for it to be worth while.

I'll fold the laundry and then let it sit in the basket until the basket is full. I end up putting it away and somehow, I leave mine and DH's clothes folded in the chair that's next to our dresser. I get lazy when it comes to putting it away.

I also have a metal hanging bar that I leave the hanging laundry on until I put the folded stuff away.

i, too, fold it and put it in a basket. when the basket is full, i put it away. usually overflowing, on saturday.

I try really hard to get laundry put away once it is folded but that doesn't always happen......I'm working on it though!!

I fold my laundry and household laundry (sheets, towels, etc.) and put it away as soon as it's dry.

OTOH, we have a total of 4 laundry baskets, all of which are filled with DH's unfolded clothes. It makes me crazy and I've gone as far as folding everything for him, but then he doesn't even bother to put it away. It makes me crazy, but I refuse to fold AND put away a grown man's clothes.

I always hang clothes as soon as the dryer stops (well sometimes I'll let jeans sit in there but I'd say 95% of the time I do) and I fold the clothes that need to be folded then as well. Towels and underclothes will sometimes sit in the basket for a day or so. But I usually fold and put them away pretty quick.
