You have more people to look after than I do, too. There is just my husband and I now.<br /><br />A basket with wheels would be perfect, except that there are two sets of stairs in our house to go up and down. Maybe we need to install a laundry chute from the top floor to the basement!<br />jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-38377127342343376712018-01-22T02:44:25.901-04:002018-01-22T02:44:25.901-04:00Hilarious writing my dearest Jenny!

Thank you for the link, Diane. <br /><br />I am "cheapo" myself, so now I am wondering if I could find a container that my bags would fit into . . . because I'm going to sew those things if it kills me :) but having them in a solid container would make them easier to use. I'm sure I could find something if I start looking.<br /><br />I think you just made me extend the project again . . .

I think you're definitely making this harder than it needs to be, though -- can't you BUY a cloth laundry bag or two? Or maybe mesh bags? (Though that wouldn't solve the cleaning-the-floor problem.)<br /><br />We keep our laundry in the hamper until it's laundry day, and then I throw it all on the floor and sort it into two piles (usually) and then wash them. No carrying required -- but that's only because our flat is so compact!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-51381750643228841002018-01-20T10:45:21.304-04:002018-01-20T10:45:21.304-04:00Blogger has been acting so weird lately.

I enjoyed this far more than I probably should have :) Making such an interesting post out of laundry baskets is quite the accomplishment.<br /><br />We store our unwashed clothes in a hamper and when I'm ready to do laundry, I transfer our stuff to...you guessed it...a laundry basket and carry it downstairs. It hasn't bothered me yet but when the basket is too heavy, which really isn't very often, my husband carries it for me. I've never thought of using anything but a laundry basket!Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09262406079948479112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-90793010019902256502018-01-20T07:25:49.099-04:002018-01-20T07:25:49.099-04:00My comeback is that I support Red 100%.
