My most laundered item...
With three kids it seems like we are always washing bath towels. To keep it simple, we have all white towels through the house. I love the spa-like feel it gives to the bathrooms and I can wash them on warm or hot and use all-purpose bleach alternative with each wash to keep them bright white. I find using scented vinegar instead of fabric softener also keeps towels soft and fluffy.
My favorite laundry tip or trick...
To wash kids clothes together - no sorting out by color, I just wash it all together on cold. Of course, if someone has a new hot pink shirt I'll wash that separately on cold for a couple washes before tossing it in with everything else. I've found that while this might not be the best practice for all laundry it works well with the kids' clothes and saves time and sorting.
