I'm joining the Wednesday carnival over at Rocks In My Dryer today! (Does it bother anyone else that Wednesday is totally not spelled the way everyone in America pronounces it?)Today I thought I'd share a little laundry tip with you since I know you envy my domestic diva-dom. Ha ha!
When Bug came along she came with all sorts of tiny clothes. I swear, even though her outfits are 1/23 the size of mine, her wardrobe takes up 100 times more room than mine does! Not only are all the little pieces impossible to fold, I found I was constantly missing sock partners of her teensy weensy socks!
The missing sock syndrome is annoying enough with regular sized socks, but to constantly be on the search for a pink sock with white polka dots that would fit on my pinkie toe... enough is enough!
I realized that her socks would go perfectly through the laundering process if they were enclosed in a lingerie bag. WA-LA! Problem solved.So now the bite-sized pieces of cotton that resemble a small foot all stay together through washing and drying in the lingerie bag!

LOL! I love your writing style - it's so descriptive yet simple. I can just picture this teeny sock hanging on pinky toe. :)
I tagged you in a meme at my blog, so stop on by! (ramblings-n-writings.blogspot.com)
I was going to suggest the bag - I have just discovered this little miracle!!! I have two girls - a four year old who is tiny and a 6 month old who is NOT. Her feet are quite large (like her mama's!!) and so the socks are close to the same size as her sis. SO, I bought TWO bags and color coded them with sharpies and now they each have their own - which TOTALLY saves on the sorting... my LEAST favorite part of laundry!!!!

Great idea. I find that the socks get stuck in other pieces of clothing.
