How do you wash your jeans? Any special tips for us? This is the first video in our jean care series. Part two is coming next week. When you are done here, watch this video next on Dryer Balls vs Dryer Sheets kzread.info/dash/bejne/foOEx6icqLenZ7A.html.

I so much enjoy your videos. I really like the ones where you are in them alone and not interviewing someone. You alone are a wealth of information. Thank you

Hi Tasha, thank you. The "interview" segments is for my weekly show Homemaking with Purpose. It airs every Thursday at 7:45 PM EST and it's meant to be an interview format. You can skip those if you like and just watch the other days. On some Thursdays, either it will just be me or there may be a placeholder video if I have to be away. Tell me, what do you like best about the regular videos? That will help me with planning upcoming videos.

thank you for the advices ,it helped me a lot 😊

Thanks! This helped a lot

Love your energy

Thank you for explaining things so thoroughly! I always learn something new from you!

@@homemakingwithdenise I didn’t know that’s what “wash separately “ meant, I didn’t realize about the transfer of color or to zip them up. Makes sense!

I was *just* about to put my jeans in the washer, so I had to stop and watch! I do turn my jeans inside out but never zipped/buttoned them. Trying it this time! I've heard the trick about the vinegar to set the dye (any dark color, actually) but never tried it. I wear dark wash jeans exclusively; to keep them looking brand new, I use Wool-ite Darksdetergent. I wear jeans exclusively and only have a few pairs, so they're being washed at least once a week. These are two years old and look nearly new.

Hi Sandra, I've got one coming on how to keep jeans from fading and I do talk about the possibility of buying the dark wash detergents but for the most part, I try to consider what people probably already have at home. I sent my hubby to get some so i had it for the video...he couldn't find any so...no dark wash that day. Had to go with what I already had.

Glad I saw this. I nearly wear Jeans exclusively excluding weddings and funerals. I have like 4 pair and leave one pair new untouched just if a special occasion arises. After a certain amount of time and wear they get relegated for work use then I get another pair. Thanks for the dark color tips. That’s all I wear.

I leave my washer lid open for two reasons. One : to dry out. Two: I know at a glance my washer is empty. I didn’t forget clothes in the washer.

Hi! This is a great video. Can you make a video on how to keep whites white?

Hello from Cali Mrs. Denise 😊. I’m like your niece . I Love an amazing pair of jeans. Dress them up or down depending on your own style preference. Also, thanks for the info on zipping and button those jeans because you r rt! You can lose a button r the zipper might snag another favorite item that you wash, so thank you for the reminder. Have a blessed weekend 🌹.

Hi Lovely. You have a nice weekend as well. I see you get it about the pricey jeans. Well then, you'll want to take care of them. I'm glad the video was helpful.

I started using Persil a few months ago, in addition to other detergents according to what I am washing. The Persil that I have now is Oxi, so I am using it just for laundry where odor or stains is an issue. In years past, I did buy special detergent for dark clothes. Usually, I do put my jeans in the dryer on low for a short period of time and then hang to dry. Thanks for this video. Even though I buy most of my jeans at thrift stores, they are good quality and I want them to last.

Hi Ms Bennett. I will have to try the Persil with Oxi.. I've not tried it yet. Just the original version which I love. As for the special detergent for dark clothing, it's nice but it's another thing to buy. If you're careful with the wash, you might not need it. What other tip resonated with you?

@@homemakingwithdenise Your suggestions to turn the jeans inside out and fasten and zip them up are so important. I will admit to not doing that very often .. I just want to throw everything in the washer. However, taking a few extra seconds and doing things the right way will make a huge difference in the life and appearance of our jeans. Thank you! I was not taught to do laundry and have learned along the way and am still learning.

Never knew about the button and zipper being closed. Can't wait to wash my jeans now! 😂

I had to chuckle at that. Yes. Closing the zipper is helpful particularly if you bought some of those distressed jeans with rubs and holes already, you don't want to damage them. Jeans are an investment today.

how often do I need to wash the jeans?

One of my laundry challenges is my husband's clothes. He works around his vehicle and tends to bring in oil stains and gasoline smells. I already wash his separately. They just never get clean enough.

I hear you. Oil and grease stains and orders are hard to deal with. You're doing the right thing to wash them separately. I'll work on a video for that problem.

And you'll want to use a machine that fills full of water, especially to rinse out the detergent. My whirlpool direct drive, of 29 years works perfectly to this day.

I have a child who has disabilities and he wets his bed every night. I’m wondering what is the best way to wash his bedding so that it is clean, sanitary and smells good without adding lots of scented laundry products

She suggested running a wash just using white vinegar. Then run again using your detergent. She also suggested 1/2 cup white vinegar in the rinse cycle.

No worries. I usually speak directly to homemakers…that includes my female and male homemakers…it was one of my housemen who reminded me that I have a large contingent of male viewers. Guys need to know this stuff too. And not to mention my young men off to college or in their first apartments. They need all this stuff too. Homemakers, from my perspective, are anyone…people…making and keeping a home. I’m so glad you’re here. What video can I make for you?
