Aluminum Foil Balls Instead Of Dryer Sheets

Open the kitchen drawer and grab a roll of aluminum foil.

Aluminum foil balls instead of dryer sheets.

Our first tip of these two laundry hacks is also supposed to save money as when you ve finished a load in the dryer you can save the aluminum foil ball for next time. Take some regular aluminum foil make a ball about the size of a baseball and toss it in the dryer. It would definately be cheaper than buying dryer sheets all the time. Roll them together in a ball about two to three inches in diamater and toss that ball into the clothes dryer along with your laundry.

Trust us it works. They also tumble happily with your laundry softening it as it drys. Just crumple a strip of foil into a ball about the size of a baseball and toss it in the dryer with your laundry. Not only does it eliminate static the tin foil is reusable for future loads.

The aluminum foil tip is a great one. Out of dryer sheets on laundry day. I like the fact that the foil balls can be reused over and over agin too. Aluminum dryer balls will not provide your clothes with the floral scents you re used to with dryer sheets.

This trick is so simple. Aluminum foil dryer balls are a green alternative to commercial dryer sheets or liquid fabric softener. Most dryer sheets contain animal fat which builds up on your clothes and dryer lint screen over time. Aluminum foil will also fail to soften the clothes like a dryer sheet would.

This is definately something i am going to have to give a try. Yay for life hacks. The ball discharges built up static in the clothes and also helps your items dry faster. All you need to do is tear off three sheets of aluminum foil each about a foot long.

Yes you can make your own dryer sheets. In the winter when i have trouble with static i ball up some aluminum foil and throw it in the dryer as well. I am just surprised i had never heard of this before. Thanks for sharing this with us.

I love my dryer balls no chemicals easy to use and they last a long time. Theoretically you put a rolled up ball of aluminum foil in the dryer instead of using a dryer sheet and then you can say good bye to static cling. While in the dryer they absorb electrical charges so your clothes stay static free.
