DIY/Natural Dryer Sheets?
Anyone making their own dryer sheets? How do they work? Does they really cut down on static cling and soften clothes? I've read a few different ways of doing them. The most popular type uses fabric softener.... which I was trying to get away from using. I'd like to avoid the chemicals if possible. Any advice?

Re: DIY/Natural Dryer Sheets?
Pour distilled white vinegar into your washer's fabric softener dispenser.
Or pour it in during the rinse cycle if you don't have a dispenser.
Also, don't over-dry stuff.

I've heard good things about it. You can make your own, but it's easier to buy, imo.
I use wool dryer balls and love them! Cuts down on drying time too. I have 6 that I use.
I've also heard of people keeping a washcloth that they spritz with white vinegar and throw it in like a dryer sheet. I haven't tried this myself, but it might be worth trying!

This! Also - check out dryer balls - they can help 'fluff' your clothes... if you get the right kind.
