How can I keep my clothes from Wrinkling?

Where do you keep semi-clean clothes?

  • I know I should throw my dirty clothes down the laundry chute so that I can wash them later. I also know to bring clean clothes up from the laundry room and put them in my dresser or hang them up in the closet. But where do I put the clothes that have been worn at least once but that don't yet need to be washed? I'm talking about jeans, sweaters, and certain shirts, not underwear, socks or undershirts. Putting the semi-clean clothes back in the dresser doesn't seem ideal because they have some dirt or dust that I don't want to get on the unworn clothes. Right now, I fold up the semi-clean clothes and put them on the floor next to my side of the bed, but my wife objects to my clothes pile. How do other people handle this? Is there some standard system that I've missed out on?

    This is why people buy elliptical machines.

Back in the closet. It's not like it's a bacteria-free zone.

This is why people have a chair in their bedroom.

We have an over the door set up hooks that have about 6 metal hooks that we hang over the closet door. It holds clean and mostly clean pants, the occasional dress shirt and what ever else needs to hang out for a bit until it's to dirty to wear. Bed bath and beyond and the container store have a million of these types of hangers.

I put things on hangers on hooks in the dressing room (because I am really lucky and have a dressing room). Although I subscribe to the belief that if it's clean enough to be worn again, it's clean enough to go back in the closet, I do like to let things air before shoving them back into the closet. If I'm feeling competent and on top of things, I run the lint brush over my ordinary clothes before they go back in the closet. If it's a suit or one of my more expensive articles of clothing, it gets a brushing with the clothes brush when it gets hung up whether I'm feeling on top of things or not. I am also one of those people who has "house" clothes and "leaving the house" clothes. My husband laughs at me because he knows that even though it means I change clothes three or four times some days, if I'm in the house for longer than 20 minutes, I change out of my clothes and into my house clothes. It minimizes wear, cat dander, and the odds of my spilling all over my nice things.

Overdoor hangers in the bedroom or nearby chairs are usually the location for this. I mostly tend to throw stuff over the back of the couch or on the breakfast bar stools since I shed clothes with every step into my apartment, culminating in the Wearing Of The Pajamas or the Wearing Of The Gym Clothes.

I put them on a chair. But honestly, if it's clean enough to wear again, it's clean enough to get hung up again. I'm just lazy.
