Lint Shaver
Lint Shaver

Don't you just hate it when you take your winter clothes out of storage and they all smell musty? The wrinkles aren't going to be any fun to deal with either. Most people end up washing all of their clothes again. Some things even need to be taken to the dry cleaner. It takes up so much energy, time and money that it has most wondering if there is a better way. Well, there is. There are a few things you can do to make your seasonal transitions easier to manage.
The musty smell is actually mold growing in the fibers of your clothes. You can get rid of the smell by getting rid of the mold. One way is to hang the clothes out in the sun. If you have an outdoor laundry line, take your boxes of clothing outside and hang them in the full sun. Don't attempt this if it is a damp or dreary day, or you'll just end up helping the mold grow some more. Let the clothes hang for at least two full hours in the sun. Hang the clothes on clothes hangers that keep them slightly spaced apart in your closet. You can use a hand steamer to get out wrinkles if they don't fall out naturally after being hung.
Another option is to use your dryer. Items that are "dry clean only" can usually be put in the dryer on low heat. You can try a home dry cleaning kit available at your grocery store or discount store, where ever you buy laundry detergent. These kits have sheets, like dryer sheets, that you put into the dryer with your dry clean only clothes.
If you want to freshen up clothes that are not dry clean only, put them in the dryer on a heat level appropriate for the fabric type with a dryer sheet. Navy blue and black fabrics may pick up a waxy residue from the dryer sheet, so dry darker items with a used dryer sheet. If you do get the residue, you may need to use a clothes shaver or lint brush to get it off.
Wool can be easily damaged by heat, so be careful using the dryer if you have wool suits or coats. You can spray a fine mist of vodka on wool items to kill the mold, and then use a lint brush to brush away any moth larvae that may be imbedded in the wool. Air-dry the garments on a sturdy coat hanger.
You may decide to invest a little in a garment rack. You can hang your clothes on cascading clothes hangers that hang lots of items on one hanger. This will help you to fit your winter clothes on one rack. Use cedar hangers to absorb moisture and deodorize clothing while it is in storage. Using a wood hanger is a great idea for helping your suits and coats keep their shape at the shoulders.

How do I get the small fluffy `balls` out of woollen clothes?
I follow all the manufacturer`s instructions when caring for my woollen sweaters but often end up with these little balls/knots(don`t really know what they are called)-not lint though, all over the clothes.I tend to hand pick them off my sweaters(which takes forever).
I`ve heard of clothes shavers, but what am i to look out for when buying one?Which brands are the most effective?
Thanks.
usually the little balls are called "pills"
I haven't tried it, but there's also a "sweater stone" that's supposed to wipe these away without hurting your sweater - and it's much cheaper than the shavers (it's just pumice)
Let me know if it works!
