I don’t know if I even have a “tip of the day” section but if I don’t, I ought to. I recently found this one over at Apartment Therapy which you know is one of my favorite sites, anyway. And this! so useful.
If you use dryer sheets – well, I’ve said it before – really, don’t. Now I have an alternative to suggest:
![crumpled aluminum foil dryer sheet](http://paperjewels.com/blog_pics/aluminum_foil_dryer_sheet.jpg)
Voila! I tried it and it works. Crumple a piece of aluminum foil, toss it in the dryer. Instant de-staticer. And you can reuse it for months. MUCH better than buying a new chemical-impregnated sheet for every load of wash.
I still don’t use them very often. But when I do – hey, this works!
