Instead of fully drying your sheets, try making your bed while they’re still slightly damp. This old-fashioned trick smooths wrinkles naturally,
keeps fabrics soft, and helps them last longer by avoiding dryer heat damage. The moisture relaxes fabric fibers, so sheets “set” into place as
they dry—no ironing needed. They also hold that just-washed scent longer, especially if you’ve used natural laundry products or essential oils.
Damp sheets are easier to stretch over the mattress, making bed-making simpler for anyone, especially
those with joint stiffness. It also reduces airborne lint and dust, keeping your bedroom cleaner.
To try it: remove sheets from the washer (or dryer after just 5–10 minutes), smooth them over the bed,
and let them air-dry in place. A small change, big payoff—crisp, fresh bedding without the extra work.
