Homemade Anti-Static Dryer Sheets

Save money with this frugal option for reusable dryer sheets using your own washcloths and fabric softener.
Author: Beverly

Equipment:

  • Large Bowl (for soaking)

Materials:

  • Washcloths
  • Fabric Softener

Instructions:

  • Place your washcloths in a large bowl and pour enough fabric softener over them to soak them well.  
  • Let the washcloths sit for a few minutes in the fabric softener to make sure they have soaked up as much as they can.
  • Then squeeze or wring them out a bit (so that they are not drippy) and hang them somewhere to dry completely
  • Once they are completely dry you can start using them the same way as you would any store bought dryer sheet. Just toss one into the dryer with a load of clothing.
  • You can resoak and dry your washcloths as needed when you feel the fabric softener power is wearing off. You should be able to use them for a few months before they need to be soaked again.
