Wool Dryer Balls ...a superb eco-friendly replacement for dryer sheets. By Christine Klein
Dryer sheets are commonly used to remove static electricity from clothing during the drying process in machines. Most dryer sheets are made of chemicals and synthetic materials.
The alternative dryer ball is created from one natural renewable resource: wool. The wool ball assists in reducing static electricity while fluffing laundry. The use of two or three balls helps to reduce drying time by increasing air flow.
Wool does not harbor bacteria, absorbs static, and the friction softens clothing. The bonus factor: dryer balls cut waste and spending dollars! The balls only get better with age and can be used for years. Wool dryer balls are extremely easy to make at home, and several web sites offer simple directions to follow. If making custom dryer balls doesn't interest you, visit etsy.com to purchase simple designs for $5 or more extravagant designs for $25.
