Sydney mum Gee Edwards has shared her handy hack for drying shoes in the tumble dryer without them bouncing around in the drum causing a ruckus
To stop the shoes tumbling around in the dryer, Gee started by tying the laces on her newly washed, white sneakers together in a double knot.
She then drapes the laces over the dryer door so the shoes are inside and the knot is outside preventing the sneakers from falling in once the machine is turned on.
When Gee puts the dryer on a cycle, the shoes stay in place without clunking about the drum, making noise, or harming the machine.
