What are some helpful tips for folding laundry quickly?

1. Sort clothes by type, color and fabric texture before you begin so you're not creating extra work for yourself.
2. Wash and dry similar items in the same load to save time transferring wet clothes back and forth.
3. After washing, shake out the items before you put them in the dryer to reduce wrinkles.
4. Use the correct heat setting for the load and keep the dryer on for the minimum amount of time.
5. Remove items from the dryer while they're still slightly damp, and fold them in a designated spot to reduce chaos.
6. If possible, hang items that don't need to be folded right away.
7. Tackle bigger projects, such as bedding and jeans, last to give them extra dryer time.
8. Use a steam iron or steamer instead of an iron to reduce wrinkles and save time.
