Via Instagram, social media user Nicola Lewis shared a lesser-known button on your washing machine that can significantly speed up the drying process.

According to Nicola – better known as That girl can organize – explained that setting the appliance to ”Drum/Spin” can really help when washing your clothes.

Nicole urged her fellow Brits not to sleep during the special function and raved about the button the video and said, ”Double your laundry!

“Your clothes come out much drier, which means they dry faster.”

Despite what many may assume, this setting does not immerse the items in more water, but rather gives them a double twist that dries out as much of the water as possible.

“Always shake your clothes before hanging them to dry to remove any wrinkles.”

Other tips for pros The savvy professional from Essex swore by using a chandelier in addition to a dehumidifier when it’s too gloomy and wet outside (or if it’s winter).

“A dehumidifier removes moisture from the air and dries your clothes faster.

“If you don’t have a dehumidifier, open a window and place the airer near natural light.”

If you’re short on cash – or just don’t want to spend a fortune – because of the wet weather, shoppers are raving about a small but mighty dehumidifier from Poundstretcher.

The great value Fab Fresh purchases were 89 cents, but are now just 59 cents, saving you a whopping 33% on the handy winter must-have.

The five-in-one dehumidifiers absorb up to three times their own weight in water and are ideal for ventilation grilles and wardrobes.

Plus, this season they not only help dry laundry, but also get rid of musty odors – all for less than a pound.

The wallet-friendly in-store bargain also improves air quality and tackles unpleasant odors – and there are plenty of scents for customers to choose from, including rose, fresh linen and lavender.

Last but certainly not least, Nicola also recommended using a fan to circulate the air – and in turn speed up the drying process.

How do you get your laundry dry when it’s raining outside?

Dealing with the British weather is not ideal when it comes to getting clothes dry outside. But fear not: if it rains, there are a few tips you can try to get your laundry dry indoors.

Curtain poles

If you hang your clothes on hangers to dry, you can then hang the clothes on a curtain rod. This is an effective hack, but it’s important to make sure you also have a window open to promote ventilation and prevent mold from forming.

Chandeliers

There are a whole range of airers on the market, but the popularity of heated airers has risen dramatically in recent months. Many people swear by using a heated drying rack to dry clothes quickly and evenly, without adding to the energy bill of using a tumble dryer.

Dehumidifiers

Although the main purpose of a dehumidifier, as the name suggests, is to reduce the humidity in the room, they also work great for getting clothes dry. Many of the small machines even have a wash setting. And again, using a dehumidifier is also inexpensive because they are very energy efficient.

Radiator cocoon

If you have the heating on, creating a cocoon with a fitted sheet and your radiator can be a game changer. Simply place one end of the fitted sheet over the radiator and position the other end so that it completely envelops the ventilation grille. This makes your clothes dry faster, because the warm air stays in the cocoon, instead of it all escaping.

Turn it

The majority of washing machine cycles end with a spin cycle, but you can always give your laundry an extra spin before taking it out to remove as much moisture as possible before hanging it up. It’s a hack that many people swear by when it comes to drying clothes indoors.

The clever guru told her 198,000 followers: ‘If you don’t have a dehumidifier, open a window and place the dehumidifier near natural light.

”Introduce a fan to circulate cold air so your clothes dry faster and prevent mold.

“Any desktop fan can be used and it’s a lot cheaper than turning on the heat!”

One Instagram user thanked Nicola for the simple but effective trips, saying: “We’ve just invested in a dehumidifier and it’s bloody amazing.”

Another said: “No more condensation on the windows and that battle with mold feels like a distant memory.”

A third chimed in: “Very pleased, but don’t forget to double up!”
