Where do you leave once-worn clothes?

[schroedingersdodo]

Those clothes you've worn once, and you plan to wear once again before putting to wash. Where do you keep/hang/leave them? They always pile up over chairs, hangers, the sofa, and I never know what to do. Even if I set a designated area for them, these clothes seem to breed and multiply, and take over!

Lots of ideas here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/good_housekeeping/719617-Worn-clothes-that-aren-39-t-dirty-where-do-you

Mine : on a chair, or a hanger in wardrobe door
Dh's : on banister or floor
Kids: in their drawer, on a chair or if uniform hung up again on wardrobe door ready for the next day

Left hand side of wardrobe.

Mine: on a chair or hanger. But I don't accumulate many - if I'm going to rewear, its usually on successive days.

DHs - wherever he drops them. I move them to a chair or hang them up apparently to ensure he can't find them

DD - on top of her dolls house - if I put them on the chair in her room the dog would toss them off or sit on them (its where he sits while she's going to sleep). Sometimes on a hanger.

Over the banister on the landing.

I find it really strange that people do not put the clothes back in their wardrobe. If it is a t shirt worn in the summer I will wash it after one wear but jeans and cardigans etc get worn loads of times before washing! What about suits for work, you can't clean them after every wear?

It depends what - suits/work jackets/woolies go back in wardrobe. Anything worn next to the skin tends to stay out, or anything which I feel is a bit grubby but plan to rewear (eg walking trousers with a bit of mud on the bottom; a top with a slight splash if I know I'm cooking next morning)

Thanks for the ideas! Think I have to find a better system then - and have a bit of discipline to prevent them from getting too many.

floor, duh.
oh, and backs of chairs are good.
also, doorknobs.
sometimes mixed in with clean laundry, during its mandatory three-week rest in the basket in my room.
but mostly floor.

This causes massive between me & my DH as I don't like putting things back in wardrobe once worn - only suits etc which I hang up to air first...
He is very organised & my stuff hanging around (or not...) really gets to him!

I am trying to be more tidy with it all

Mine go back in the wardrobe.

Well, right now there's yesterday's running clothes which will be worn once more before going for a wash, piled on a chair. With the rest of the stuff which I put there to be worn again but is then too creased for even me to wear it.

Stuff like woolies, heavier skirts and dress, anything dry-cleanable is put on a hanger and hung on hooks in the wardrobe for 24 hours to air. Then back on the wardrobe rails. I'm in Australia, so, as in most houses, have a walk-in wardrobe in the main bedroom. At least you can shut the door on it all.:o
