Yes, I know the freezer trick……. But one of my favorite trickles is to hang the garment on a hanger outside. Either in the sun or shade on a breezy day. Nothing like fresh air ❤️
Vodka + Water in a Spray Bottle. It's how we do it for costumes in theatre :) Many costumes can't be washed or dry cleaned. Works wonders. No chemicals or 'cover up' scents involved (and nothing smells like vodka). I use it at home too. Easiest option out there (imo)
Excellent tip from a costume pro! Thanks for sharing your advice, Christina! 😍
Volka and Coke spray bottle also takes mineral deposits off car windows. 1 cup each Spray leave it check you may have to do it twice.
What are the measurements?
LIKE ALCOHOL VODKA?
STEAM KINDA MAKE IT WORSE IT SEEMS
Another idea is to use Natures Miracle skunk odor remover in your wash. Yes, found this when my big dog would try to play with the skunks on our property. Use a capful in any load of washable clothes and will remove any mildewy or old clothes smell from your clothes. It neutralizes and not a perfume cover up. It’s a bio-enzyme and stops the odor. It’s great to use on your bedsheets and towels too.
Thanks for the great tip, Emiko! 🦨🤩
I cant find the comment, but someone suggested borax and oxyclean. And it WORKED! Let them soak a while before finishing the wash cycle. Im so glad i saved my clothes! Hope this helps someone.
Thank you
Thanks gonna try that because none of these tips in the video really work against armpit sweat.
I just started using fabric sanitizers. They kill 99.9% of odor causing bacterias (and germs.) I used the Tide fabric sanitizer for my teens' stinky clothes.. Sprayed it in the armpit area, and it's worked wonders! Also, the OxiClean fabric sanitizer. Both are recommended. 😊
I'll have to try some of these. I've always felt bad about this, because I struggled with mental health stuff for a long time, and many things, including laundry piled up.... And I was worried I would have to get rid of so much clothing. Other searches I did said that if you clothes still smell after washing or using an oxy-clean type thing, then you would NEVER get the smell out. I truly hope that's not the case!
Hanging my stuff out on the clothes line all day on a fine breezy day seems to work. Especially damp bath towels. Thanks for all the tips. will certainly give them a try out less dry cleaning.
Purchased a lot of scarves from an estate sale to resell. After I got home I noticed the smell, so I washed them, and now they are hanging outside. I pray it works because it is over 100 scarves and no room in the freezer.
Vinegar! If I leave a load in the washer too long… usually because I forgot about it…I simply rewash the load on a quick cycle with vinegar as my “soap”. Works every time!
Great tip! Thanks so much for sharing! 😍
doesn’t the clothing smell like vinegar then?
@@amelijakniazevaite2047 It never has. It’s more of a fresh laundry smell. I use about 1/2 to 1 cup depending on the load size. So it is fairly diluted but is enough to kill the bacteria causing the odor.
thanks! do you just pour the vinegar in the washing machine with the clothing?
@@amelijakniazevaite2047 I add it the the soap dispenser. If I had a top loader I’d wait until the water was in just so I wasn’t pouring pure vinegar on the clothes.
You talked about stinking clothes, and I was just happy for the video, it took my mind off the past couple of weeks since I had a unwelcome visitor in my hometown IAN.
Ian came through my town as well. Hope you and your family are safe and had no damage.
Leslie, we are good.. but glad he left town
I hope you are safe also. Where do you live ?
I too have heard the freezer trick. I use the fabric spray. Great video!
I have heard of the freezer tip but there is never any room in my freezer to try it!🤣😱💕
LOL! 🤣
I love all your videos, but the scientist in me needs to say it. Freezing clothes will kill some bacteria but many will survive and repopulate after clothes are back from the freezer. In the lab, we keep our bacteria’s frozen, so we know they will grow back. I do see how clothes may smell refreshed after the freezer time, but the bacterials load is just paused not eliminated. But as long as they feel fresh enjoy wear it one more time, I guess it ok:))😊
Hi Marina, Thank you for the expert input! 😀
This was very informative. I didn’t know some of the ways. I have a steamer, but I usually just spray what I want to wear with the Downey wrinkle release, and put whatever it is in the bathroom when I take a shower. So the steam from the shower will help with the wrinkles. I knew the freezer one. I have never tried it. I know if you put your jeans in the freezer when you take them out, you can wear them a few more times without washing them.
Oh, I like that way to get extra wears out of your jeans, Pam! 👖I guess my family will be finding jeans in my freezer! 😄
Freezer trick is good. I also leave those smelly ones soaked in water with white vinegar for an hour before washing or I add vinegar to washing machine together with powder..
Thanks for your great tips! 🤩
I live in a place where winter is....COLD. I have frozen smells out of furniture. Works great😊
Really
Yes, it takes time and a covered space such as a garage space but it works.
My dryer has a steam fresh and sanitize option. Works wonders on pillows.
Oh, that's awesome, Kathleen! 🤩
As we speak, I have a 100% wool second hand coat in the freezer 😂 it really works and also kills bacterias, moths and their eggs if there are any, you never know with second hand…
Add 1 cup of vinegar per load of laundry. Shoes (in a plastic bag) in the freezer kills the germs causing shoe/foot odor.
The freezer: I have a polyester jacket and I put it in the freezer over night 3 times then put it outside to air out this was the best combo thank you so much ✅
So glad to hear it worked for you!
Just tried the freezer tip. It worked! Problem solved. Thank you.😊
Yay! So glad it worked for you, Kathleen! 🤩
@Hayley Paige I'm so happy you found a remedy that worked and thank you for sharing your tip with us! 🤩
Do you have to wash the clothes first before putting it inside the freezer or after??
@@ceejaevongola1161 No, just put them in the freezer. 🤩
Fresh air is my first go-to. Especially if the air is cool and there's a good breeze.
When washing clothes, I add some baking soda or do a vinegar rinse instead of fabric softener and that works really well. But my go to is the freezer or just hang it outside to get air :)
Wow. This was so helpful. Thanks.
For the freezer method should you wash the cloths then put it in the freezer or put the cloths just like that?
What also works well is to dissolve a small box of baking soda in your washing machine or a bucket of water and have the clothes soak for about 15 to 30 minutes then rinse with fabric softener.
Thanks for the tip! 😍
I have heard of the freezer to put your clothes when they stink also the vodka and water is another good one and using white vinegar in your laundry works well too.
I've done 4 passes with a strong vinegar sollution, no succcess yet
I know this trick is fantastic
Has anyone ever used original Pine-Sol in your washing machine to clean your stinky clothing or when you hand wash your clothing.
And use plain white vinegar and a few drops of pure essential oil.
And for the dryer use some witch hazel and some pure essential oil with water in a glass spray bottle and spray it on a wooly ball and toss it in the dryer with your laundry.
Also I heard by hanging your laundry outside in the winter time kills bacteria and freshens up your clothing.
I have personally use Pine-Sol and some white vinegar to do a deep washing machine cleaning every three months.
And just use white vinegar with some pure essential lavender oil and a few drops of tea tree oil as my fabric softener.
And my clothing smell and feel so soft and clean.
I guess whatever works .
And it never hurts to try a new way in cleaning your clothing.
I just bought a huge down jacket second hand. It smelled heavily of another person. I washed and somehow it’s worse. It smells like a wet dog now
Great video ! May I add my favourite hack for getting rid of "garage odour"......... very inexpensive Woolite Dry Care sheets !. This is a mock-dry cleaning process where you put your smelly cloth in the dryer with a sheet, agitate on warm for 20 minutes and your garment is totally revived and fresh smelling. Truly amazing ! I have revived clean clothes that were put in storage and got "that smell", as well as dusty/smelly drapes that I did not want to launder and press....... with truly amazing results and minimal fuss. Try it !
Hi Eve, thank you for this Woolite Dry Care sheet tip - it's excellent! 😍
Seriously get a few cans of cheap beer and soak them in it. I learned about moldy smell because I had to wear a hard hat and my hair smelled like swamp even after washing and my dad told me that beer will kill the mold smell so I added beer to my shampoo and the smell never came back. i do the same with moldy clothes just drop a beer in the wash with detergent and let it soak for 30 minutes or so
HI, hanging the garment in the sun is a very good option.
Thank you great tips 👍
Glad you enjoyed them, Uncle Will! 🤩
Could the freezer trick work with puffer jackets?
Put vodka (50/50 vodka/water) in your steamer. Job done
Fire hazard?
@@reatilekoketsomolatlhegi1068 why would it be a fire hazard
Alcohol vapour is highly flammable
@@reatilekoketsomolatlhegi1068 Good thing water isn't
If you can get superheated steam and throw in some alcohol vapour, you'd end up with an explosive display of pyrotechnics 😁
Question - how bout Arm & Hammer, does this work. I in honor detail and I wear uniform 2 or 3 times a week. I believe the material is wool .Thanks
Nancy, where is your multi strand gold bracelet from? It looks like a stretch bracelet. I thought it might be Lilly but I looked on her website and didn't see anything like it.
Hi Kimberly, Good eye! Yes, it's from Lilly Pulitzer: rstyle.me/+DmNkqlzqv8hUB_hcz375pQ
I put a scented bar of soap in drawers and linen cabinets
The laundry detergent, especially the scent pellets are adding to the problems. But when you look at the chemistry of the polyester synthetic fibers, and you're not washing out the soups, the Sent sookers and even dryer sheets. When that stuff stays into the fibers that holds the bacteria, creating the odor. Quick, so how do you break that down and get that out?
🤗🖤 Thanks so much!
I accidentally left my Omega 3 capsules in the washer-cannot get that stinky fish smell out. I’ve tried everything-baking soda, vinegar, enzyme cleaner-any tips for taking that particular smell out?
Hang them on the clothesline outdoors. Bonus if it’s freezing outside. The sun can do wonders.
A few days ago, I got something that smelled really bad on some cotton clothes, The smell was of the character that told me "bacteria". I put it in the washer and cranked it up to 194 degrees. I really did not think I could have drenched them in hand sanitizer over night and then wash in a cooler temp. I believe you could mix the hand sanitizer with lemon juice and/or vinegar, but I have not tried.
Did washing them on high Hot get rid of the odor?
Thank you
My pleasure! 🤩
How about leather and o think the smell is coming from the lining. I will try steaming the lining, but hope it won’t hurt the lamb leather.
I have something dead in my attic. I have 2 companies coming out tomorrow to get rid of whatever this is, but do you think your methods will work on my clothes?
Oh my, I hope they were able to find the problem! Yes, that does happen, but I've noticed that once the animal is removed, the smell quickly goes away. I think washing or freezing the garments should eliminate any residual odors. Keep me posted!
Baking soda in a plastic bag works greatly too !
Thanks for the excellent tip! 💕
The freezer works. It’s so easy and it’s great for things you really can’t wash.
I do alcohol with drops of essential oil + water in spray bottle it works perfectly
That's a fantastic tip! Alcohol can be so effective at neutralizing odors, and adding essential oil must give it a lovely scent. Thanks for sharing your go-to solution! I'll try it and maybe even mention it in a future video. 🌸👚
I’ve heard about using vodka in a spray bottle.
What if it's something you really want to wear and you don't have time to wash?
Vinegar is the best. Also do not need fabric softeners.
Great tip, Bev! I often use vinegar to clean my washing machine but never thought to use it in the load of laundry! 😀
Have I got some clothes for you. My brother is like a hermit and very early bathes or washes his clothes. I have to force him to bathe and wash his clothes and I have to be the one to wash them. I've washed them before adding vingar to the wash and his clothes still stink. I am not sure what I can use so he has some clean smelling clothes. Please if you have any suggestions can you let me know. Thanks
In addition to the options suggested in the video, I've seen many people here suggest Vodka and water in a spray bottle. Keep me posted!
Borax helps remove organic odors, however I read that if you use too much much it can crystallize in the drains and can block them . If not the only option might be to throw away the worst ones, it will cost money , even if you buy thrift clothes but it will save you time , effort, soap, water and electricity.
Great video! Can you do one about getting yellow stains out of white clothes? I've seen advice online, but would love to know what method you use.
Hi Susan, Try some vinegar! You can either add it to your laundry or mix equal parts water/vinegar to a spray bottle. Spray the yellow spots, let sit for a bit, and then wash as usual. 😍
@@shoppingonchampagne thanks. I’ll try that.
Perfume, cologne, body spray, scented lotions and creams, and other fragrances on second hand items. If I can't get those smells out, I have to get rid of whatever I purchased.
I find that synthetic fibers hold those smells more than natural fibers. More people are shopping at thrift stores these days and it take times to get rid of some odors and some never go away.
I'm trying to get fragrances OUT of my clothing, not add them into the clothing. Fragrances are making so many people sick.
I’ve heard of putting sneakers (or smelly shoes) in the freezer.
Great idea, Jane! 🤩
I have used baking soda too
Washing Soda in the wash along with regular detergent!!!
Thanks for the tip, Nella! 💕
Omg the freezer. Why didn't I think of that?
I have old dressers. They are in great shape and I don’t want to get rid of them. My clothes often have a woody, old smell. I’ve put dryer sheets in the drawers. I even took out the drawers and covered the wood with a shellac finish. Nothing has helped.
Try a thin piece of cedar wood in the back of the drawers. My husband and I bought a secondhand chest-of-drawers. We cleaned it with diluted Pine Sol and then put the cedar in the back of the drawers. We have some in our closets too.
We like the woody smell of the cedar, though. But it removed that old smell
Thank you. I’ll try anything.
I would think the entire dresser, inside the frame and the drawers entirely coated in shellac/epoxy to make a difference
Never heard of using the freezer!
Give it a try, Pam! And let me know how it works for you 😍
Me either
And how do we deal with our problems?
Freezer , especially jeans.
Theres a bad gasoline smell in my dress & cant seem to get the awful smell from it or maybe it smells like carosine or maybe roach spray
got some sick jeans from the thrift store and washed them but they smelled like shit and cigarettes so put them in the freezer and an hour later took them out and smelled absolutely nothing. going to leave them in overnight so we’ll see
Keep me posted! 🥶
@@shoppingonchampagne didn’t work nor vinegar nor bleach
@@joemammaABC123 How about vodka with water in a spray bottle. A lot of people have commented that it works really well.
@@shoppingonchampagne i don’t have vodka
NOPE!! I am trying to get rid of perfume smells, why would I want to use dryer sheets? Or scented detergents.
No video this week? Hope all is well 🙏🏻
I can of Coke® poured on item the start washer proceed.
Mildew and perfume smells in general.
perfume smell?
use concentrated HCL
Ok can someone tell me if you got pets and an old person who stinks . Your clothes are clean in your closet but people say you stink. Especially family members. 😊
I’ve tried all that and it still doesn’t work😢😢😢😂😂
I have never had any problems woth odors in clothes when washed properly and regularly.
Um.. vinegar/water (50/50) + a few drops of essential oil. Mix in a spray bottle and spray lightly on the clothes. Air dry and that's it
You don’t need to add the “um” during a text. Makes you come off as an ass.
Most of these dont work. In fact, they just mask smells. But i can still smell the stink underneath.
i wish i watched this vid before i put my t shirts in 90 c wash
spray vodka
Great advice, Eileen! 😀
This is so common sense.
No, sorry you lost my interest at scent pellets, stale perfume smells are harder to get rid if than musty smells. Adding perfume helps nothing and frankly this is a worrying trend, perfume yourself, your home, your laundry it's a silent killer.
I'm just trying to find a way to remove scent booster and spray airfreshner nastiness from a couple of e bay purchases.

Very good video, but runs a bit long
What about fabric recliner 😊
