Thanks everyone! Sorry for the delay in posts… the Healthy Cookie and I were off on vacation for a couple weeks with limited Interweb access. And one thing about my dryer balls: I do agree that line-drying clothes is far more eco-friendly, which is why I do that for about half of my wardrobe, if not more. However, in my transition back to less-hardcore-green living, I concluded that my hatred of crunchy underwear and towels somewhat justified using a bit of time in the dryer — that said, it’s an efficient model and it senses when clothes are dry, so it shuts off automatically rather than staying on for an hour.

Your video was great until the dryer ball part, where I thought, instead of not using dryer sheets, you should not use the dryer at all! (And now I see that Marie, above my comment, has mentioned the same thing.)

We have a laundry line strung up outside for nice, warm weather, and another one inside the house for the rest of the year. It’s super easy and cheap. All you need is laundry line (same as the outdoors version) and some “J” hooks.

I love the dishes watering the plant idea. But I have to ask, you unplugged your fridge, but still use your dryer?? Isn’t hanging laundry one of the easiest things eco things to do? Mine is in an altered linen closet in the winter to take up less space. (And of course on a line in the summer.)
