Q of the Day
How often do you wash... your towels? ... your bras? ...your sheets? ...your coats?
Re: Q of the Day
How often do you wash... your towels? ... your bras? ...your sheets? ...your coats? 1. Towels: when they are dirty or left on the floor...so at least weekly if not more often
2. Bras: I usually wear bras twice before washing them, unless I am working, then they get washed as soon as they are warn (Working in a shelter I am paraniod about bedbugs and wash everything I wear as soon as I get home.
3. Sheets: Not enough....every couple months maybe?
4. Coats: Only if they look dirty or have something stuck on them...
My Blog:Through My Eyes
Towels: I try to every week...if not every 2 for sure
Bras: I do all my laundry at the end of the week, and have 4 bras.. so I guess they probably get worn 2-3 times depending on the week and then get washed on Sunday
Sheets: Every 2 weeks
Coats: Unless they're really dirty and i've gotten something on them, usually at the end of the season.
Towels: We have SO many towels, one of these days Im taking the ratty ones to the SPCA...we wash our favorites every week
Bras: I do all my laundry at the end of the week , everything goes in.
Sheets: I should do this way more often, I just do them when I feel skivvy haah...like now they need to be done.
Coats: Unless they're really dirty and i've gotten something on them, usually at the end of the season.
Towel: I got a ton of towels for my shower so I don't wash them until I have a full load, but they get changed on Sun and Wed.
Bras: 3 wearings and then hand washed
Sheets: weekly, mattress and feather bed covers and pillow covers every other week, blankets, comforter and pillows once a month, I'd wash them more frequently but the comforter and the pillows are down and take forever to dry.
Coats: at the end of each season and then stored unless I get something on them and they have to be washed.
Bras - I'll wear them 2 or 3 times before I wash them... sometimes more (I always sniff test lol!)
Sheets - every two weeks, give or take
Coats - uuhhh.... maybe twice during the season, it depends if they look dirty really.

Do you wash your down comforter in your washing machine, what type of washer do you have? I used to wash mine in my front load washers, but I've moved into an apartment with the top load washer and I'm scared I'll destroy my comforter.

Towels: Every week.
Bras: I totally use the sniff test, haha.
Sheets: I wash pillowcases every week. Sheets I'll do every 2-3 weeks.
Coats: Probably once a year. Although I have a white winter coat that I love and wear the most so that usually gets washed at least 3 times during the winter.
Towels: weekly when I do laundry
Beas: totally do the sniff test but usually I throw it in the laundry every week. 2-3 washes depending on my days
Sheets: usually every 2 months during the winter but during the summer every month
Coats: once a season unless it's dirty or smells
Towels: After every shower, I usually do a load of towels and H's work clothes every day
Bras: Once a week.
Sheets: 2 x a week. I realize this is way more than necessary, but a huge improvement from changing our sheets every other day like I used to. I have sheet washing ocd :-)
Coats: Once a season, unless I get them dirty
How often do you wash...
your towels? Once a week.

This post officially makes me feel terrible and grody.
Towels: use them for about a week but do a load every month (we got that many at my bridal shower!)
Bras: every two months or so?
Sheets: monthly
Coats: Unless they're stained I use that at home dry cleaning stuff about once a year.
