Space Saving Hack: Why Roll Socks When You Can Fold Them?

Modified: Sep 27, 2016 by Vanessa Beaty · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

Space Saving Hack: Why Roll Socks When You Can Fold Them? {Video}Most of us were taught to roll up our socks one inside the other when we put away our laundry. It’s a fast and easy method, and anything that saves time is good, right?

But rolling up socks doesn’t save space. My sock drawer is usually a total mess thanks to this technique.

But I just ran into this really cool video that taught me a new way to put away my socks. Instead of rolling them, you fold them together:

Here's a bonus list of 40 Brilliant Closet and Drawer Organizing Projects.

It takes a bit of practice to get this technique now, but I’m actually getting pretty fast at it now! I love it because it makes my socks so much more compact than rolling them does, which saves space in my drawers and keeps everything neat and easy to find. It also seems to prevent socks from getting lost. What a cool discovery. Give it a try, and enjoy all the new room you free up in your sock drawer!
