How to use Wool Dryer Balls?

To use our dryer balls simply throw them into your dryer with your wet clothes or diapers and dry them as you normally would. There is no need to take them out unless you want to look at them. Your dryer balls do not need to be washed unless you find them needing it (the kids get them dirty… etc.), if they do need a wash just put them in with your laundry and wash them like normal. No special care needs to be taken. Our wool dryer balls last for years.

Steps to use Wool Dryer Balls.

• The first thing to keep in mind when using dryer balls is how dryer balls work.  Wool Dryer balls work by separating laundry in the dryer so that hot air can circulate more evenly and efficiently.
• What this means to you is that we can’t dry great big loads of laundry at one time. Instead, we need to make sure that loads a reasonable size so that there is room for dryer balls to get in there and do their work.
• The dryer balls need room to work.  Only dry loads that are small or medium-sized. If you’re wondering how many dryer balls to use a common amount is 3 balls per load.
• Grab your dryer balls and just throw them into the dryer along with your laundry.

That’s it, your clothes dryer and the dryer balls will do the rest! Keep an eye on your laundry for the first few loads.  Your laundry will dry much faster, and over-drying clothes aren’t very good for them.

How does a Wool Dryer Ball work?

The dryer balls circulate and separate the clothing and get the warm dry air right down to the core of the laundry load as well as soften your clothes with the gentle friction of the felted wool fibers against your clothing fibers. Use more and your clothes will dry faster and the more money you will save.  In addition, you will no longer have to purchase store-bought, chemical-filled fabric softeners, or dryer sheets.

Add Fragrance to your laundry using essential oils on our Wool Dryer Balls,

By splashing a few drops of essential oils onto the wool dryer balls you can make your laundry smell awesome without having to use super chemically dryer sheets to do it!

Let the essential oil soak on the dryer balls for a 10-20 minutes before you use them.  The more the oils are absorbed into the dryer balls before using the more slowly they will be dispersed in the dryer, and slower is better!

To use essential oils on your dryer balls:

• First, dry your load of laundry completely.
• Then, add in the dryer balls with the essential oils and run the load again on a non-heat setting for 10-20 minutes.
