Wool dryer balls soften your laundry without chemicals and help reduce drying time by up to half. The natural wool felted dryer balls from The Willow Store are handmade in the US and safe for all types of laundry, including cloth diapers. They are available in natural cream or hand-dyed – the colors are safe for any color of laundry and will not bleed onto your clothing. Although they may become naturally “pilly” with use, the lint does not come off onto your clothes.
You may wonder how wool dryer balls can cut your drying time so dramatically. The way they do this is by bouncing around the dryer, helping to circulate the air between your clothes, which causes them to dry faster. The friction created by the wool rubbing against your clothing softens them and also helps to reduce static.
What I love about wool dryer balls: They soften laundry naturally, without chemicals. Dryer sheets contain many chemicals that deposit residues onto your clothing. These chemicals also build up on your towels, causing them to become less absorbent. Plus, they really do decrease the amount of time clothes need to spend drying. I noticed they cut about 10-15 minutes off of my dryer’s usual drying time per load. That saves lots of energy (and $$$) over time!
How To Use Dryer Balls: Simply toss 2-3 balls into the dryer with your wet laundry. You don’t need to remove them from the dryer, ever! Simply reuse them. Wool dryer balls will last for several years.
The Willow Store’s dryer balls are approximately 9” in circumference (about the size of a tennis ball).
PURCHASE THE WILLOW STORE DRYER BALLS for $6.95 each or $19.95 for a set of 3.
