SynopsisWhen it comes to cleaning, our clothes are bossy. Their tags bully us into time-sucking techniques and, before we know it, each article of clothing is trying to tell us what to do-and none of it is simple. It's time to say goodbye to all that. Soon you'll know exactly how to care for all your textiles, and you'll be able to do it all at home. Anything, and I mean anything, can be washed at home. And I'm going to teach you how. That includes cashmere sweaters and social dresses, wool suits and winter coats, feather beds and pillows, backpacks and car mats, and whatever else you can think of. Now, imagine being able to do all this for yourself and for the ones you love-simply and easily (not to mention in a way that's faster, cheaper, kinder to the environment, and more fun). That's the promise of this book: It will transform laundry-that chore you previously tolerated, or perhaps hated-into something you enjoy, look forward to, maybe even love. And for those of you who, like me, already love laundry, I promise you'll love it even more. Book jacket., "Patric is going to be the Ina Garten of laundry." --Good Day L.A. A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK by GMA.com, The Washington Post , Working Mother, Good Day L.A., and more! Patric Richardson, aka the "Laundry Evangelist," reveals his revolutionary methods for cleaning clothes--and making laundry loads more fun. Doing laundry is rarely anyone's favorite task. But to Patric Richardson, laundry isn't just fun--it's a way of life. After years of running Laundry Camp at the Mall of America for thousands of eager learners, he's ready to share his tips, tricks, and hacks--bringing surprise and delight to this commonly dreaded chore. Sorting your laundry? It's not all about whites and darks. Pondering the wash cycles? Every load, even your delicates, should be washed using express or quick-wash on warm. Facing expensive dry cleaning bills? You'll learn how to wash everything--yes everything--at home. And those basically clean but smelly clothes? Richardson has a secret for freshening those too (hint: it involves vodka, not soap). Changing your relationship with laundry can also change your life. Richardson's handy advice shows us how to save time and money (and the planet!) with our laundry--and he intersperses it all with a healthy dose of humor, real-life laundry stories, and lessons from his Appalachian upbringing and career in fashion. Laundry Love will make you wonder why you ever stressed about ironing, dry cleaning, or (god forbid) red wine spills on your new couch. No matter the issue, Richardson is here to help you make laundry miracles happen--wrinkles and stains be damned.
