Fold Clothes In These Ways To Save Space

Here are seven of the best clothing folding and storage hacks to save you space.

Socks

In the Army, they even have rules about how to fold your socks. This method does, however, save you space. First, lay a sock on top of your other sock. Move your top sock down slightly and roll your socks nice and tight. Use the bottom sock’s elastic to secure them together. These tiny bun-shaped sock pods will give you extra space in your sock drawer.

Tank Tops

Lie your tank top upside down and backward. Fold your straps up to the top. Fold your tank top in thirds and fold the bottom half upwards.

T-Shirts

You can easily double the number of shirts in your drawer with this method. First, lay your shirt down with the print facing up. Then fold your shirt in half length-wise. Make sure the print is still facing upwards.

Next, fold your sleeves in and fold your shirt in half width wise wit the sleeves tucked in. Fold again width-wise. You can place your shirts in rows in your drawer with the print fold at the top so you can easily identify your shirts.
