Drying laundry in the autumn is a real challenge, especially if one doesn't have a tumble dryer. However, this process can be significantly accelerated. Try the brilliant idea from TikTok, and damp clothes will dry in no time.

Neat Caroline is a popular TikToker who shares advice on cleaning and organising spaces. In one of her videos, she presented a useful trick that will make wet clothes dry in just a few moments. You will need only one item for this, which you surely already have at home.

Clothes dry in a flash

Clothes dryers are becoming increasingly popular, but not everyone can afford such an expense. Most people hang clothes on a collapsible drying rack. On a summer day on the balcony or in the garden, the laundry dries swiftly. However, in the autumn, when temperatures start to drop, this process can take as long as several hours. Worse yet, frequent drying of wet clothes increases the moisture level in the room, which can lead to mould and mildew growth.

Neat Caroline showed how to solve this problem. The TikToker advised not to hang wet clothes directly on the drying rack rods, as such a large amount of material prevents free air circulation. She suggested placing them on clothes hangers and then hanging them on the rack. This will increase airflow and reduce drying time.

Additionally, this solution allows for the use of the entire drying rack space, enabling the drying of more clothes. "So simple. So genius!" - reads the comments.

Another way for express drying

Neat Caroline also presented an alternative method for quick-drying laundry. She suggested laying wet clothes on a dry towel, rolling it up thoroughly, and then squeezing it firmly — allowing the towel to absorb the excess water. Finally, the clothes should be hung on the drying rack. This way, the clothes will dry much faster.
