Folding Clothes CAN be FUN!!!!!!



Fold a shirt in 3 seconds......
Ingredients:
1. Polo shirt or T-Shirt( short sleeves)
2. Flat surface(table or ground, big enough to lie your shirt on smoothly)
Steps:
1. Take your shirt and lie it on your flat surface. Make sure you lie your shirt flat and smooth it out, so it is not wrinkled. Make sure your shirt's printed face is facing upward, and the right sleeve of your shirt should be inward( near your body).
2. Use your two left hand fingers(thumb and index fingers), pinch the whole shirt(front and back) at about five centimeter from your shoulder. Make sure this pinch is on the left side of your shirt, and it is besides your neck about three centimeters. Don't let go just yet.
3. Use your two right fingers(thumb and index finger), pinch the whole shirt(front and back) towards the middle of the shirt. Make sure this pinch matches to your previous pinch that you did not let go. Hold on to both pinch and move to the next step.
4. Hold up your left hand pinch, and take it to the bottom of the shirt. Still, DO NOT let go all the pinches.
5. Take out your left middle finger, and hook up the bottom of the shirt using the left middle finger.
6. With all pinches still pinched, hold up the shirt with all the pinches, and shake it off, until everything is flat and smooth.
7. Lie down your short backwards( the left sleeve should not show and be near your body), take the whole shirt and fold right sleeve inward.
8. Have both your right and left hands holding both sides of the shirt, fold the whole shirt into halt.
9. You now have a nice folded Polo/T-Shirt!
Note: it works with all polo and t-shirt, long and short sleeves. If it is a long sleeve, you simply fold the right sleeve the same length as your left short in step7, then it will works the same as short sleeves.
Note: it works with dress shirts too, all the steps are the same, but you need to add a step priory before you do any pinch, and the step is to bottom all your bottoms on the dress shirt.


Fold a shorts.......
Ingredient:
1. Shorts that have elastic
2. Flat surface(table or ground that is able to have the shorts lie flat and smooth)
Steps:
1. Lie your shorts flat and smooth on the flat surface. Make sure the elastic is inward(near your body).
2. Fold your elastic in once, and then take the whole elastic with the fold and fold it twice. The size of the fold is just how wide your elastic is.
3. Flip the short backward.
4. Take the edges of the elastic and fold the two edges inward evenly until the meet each other. Hold on to your fold.
5. Pull the rest of the short under the elastic, and fold them up until the the meet the elastic.
6. Use your thumb to stable your folded underneath parts, and use your index fingers to flip the elastic fold you did in step two. Flip until it wraps up the whole underneath parts.
7. You now have a nice folded shorts!
Note: this method works with under wears(boys and girls), and any pants that has elastic. However, I don't recommend pants using this method.
