In Brief
Once upon a time, in a world fraught with shrinking jeans, dry-cleaning debacles, and endangered delicates, laundry was a dreaded chore. Then one happy day, the Queen of Clean® put an end to the vicious washand-dry cycle — with her all-new collection of ingenious tips and natural solutions for stress-free washing, ironing, sorting, and stain-busting!

Sort laundry like a pro
Remove spots, stains, scorch marks, and odors
Soften hard water-and save clothes from a dull, gray fate
Make your own fabric softener sheets in a snap
Say good-bye to pink socks, with a foolproof colorfastness test
Line-dry clothes without hanger lumps or clothespin marks
Decipher those fabric care symbols on clothing tags
Get the scoop on home dry-cleaning kits
Discover the secrets to lint-free drying-and quick fixes for when tissues, crayons, and other foreign bodies take a spin in the dryer

The Queen provides a complete stain removal guide — and ransacks your cupboard for amazing, inexpensive spot removers including

meat tenderizer
WD-40
lubricant
salt
shaving cream...and more!

Whether you turn around family-sized wash loads seven days a week, air your dirty laundry at the local laundromat, or are among the seriously "laundry challenged," consult the Queen for no-nonsense advice — and fabulous results!
