I bought these wood-framed canvas laundry hampers so I could try to train my husband to sort things out before he puts them in the machine (he sees nothing wrong with putting red socks in with white shirts!) A vain hope, I know, but I enjoyed designing "Lights" and "Darks" and embroidering them so he can see where they SHOULD go! Love from Dianne x x x

If this training session works, take it on the road, and stop here first! Invaluable service to all mankind :)

Let us know if u get him"trained" dianne. I don't trust mine anywhere near the laundry. *

Well they look great, Dianne

very clever, well done ***

a Great idea, let me know whether it helps !!!!!!!
I do not think it will help here, it is too easy to just dump everything together. LOL

He also thinks everything can go in the tumble dryer too! :-( Love and flowers for everyone from Dianne x x x

Very nice,Great job!!!!! *

Great idea!!! Hope it works....

Great idea. I did that for my husband but it didn't help very much. I still had to sort everything before I did the laundry. Good thing he didn't do any of it.

Dianne, this is a great project and I do hope you do well with the training of your DH, too.

Thats a good idea - hope it works for you. I too have a hubby who thinks that is it is dirty and things are being washed in can go into the wash too. I have a couple pink towels, for he through a red Christmas towel in with the whites, but they were towels, right? At least he does the laundry for me. LOL

great idea, good luck lol

Good luck with DH . So that was you DH in a pink business shirt in the city looking sheepish :) hehehehehe

Glad you enjoyed embroidering your designs! They look great! Hope you suceed in your "training"!!....***

What a excellent idea and good luck with the training of getting the clothes sorted pre wash
