Laundry Accessories: Not Just Necessary But Versatile

The category of household products falling under the heading of Laundry Accessories cover a very wide range, from Nylon Laundry Bags to pop up hampers to ironing aids to drying racks. Many laundry accessories are so helpful that they are practically necessities, not just accessories! And some of these accessories, such as drying racks, can pull double duty as, for example, clothes hangers and organizers, depending on your tastes in interior design. ;-) But most are just straightforward objects, which is precisely what makes them so useful for making our chores quick and relatively discomfort-free.

Nylon laundry bags are an example of laundry accessories that may serve many other purposes, often not very obvious. But in our 21st Century world of convergence devices, why shouldn't they provide multiple functions and multitask like everything else? ;-) Seriously, in a world of smart phones that play video and refrigerators that surf the web, is it really incredible to think that the humble, seemingly innocuous nylon bag could admit of many uses? No, they don't have to only be laundry accessories - it all depends on your imagination, like many things in life. Why, with just a few select alterations here and there, these bags can be transformed into Halloween or Purim costumes! After all, what can be more monstrous than a giant bag of dirty laundry? ;-) And, speaking of holidays, laundry bags make great stand-ins for Santa's sack!

Though such ideas may be amusing, they can really work, as long as you have the right materials with which to work. In any event, it's obvious that such bags do not just have to be used for transporting clothes. They can be utilized for any number of purposes, like potato sack races, standing in for - what else - potato sacks! At least the really strong industrial-grade varieties can, anyway.

That's just one example of what could be done with the many different accessories available, but of course some are only good for one thing and just the one thing only, such as sprays that claim to remove stains immediately, on contact and without suds and water (except what little foam might be generated by the product itself). And soon enough scientific discoveries in nanotechnology could even render most laundering chores obsolete as miracle fibers are invented which can resist all stains - in fact, a few are already out on the market! But because many of the accessories discussed can serve other roles, items like bags, sorters, and racks will likely continue to be made no matter what else is invented.
