I remember my Mom and Grandma (here in Boston, Massachusetts, and Digby Nova Scotia), using 'Stewart's Blueing' in the last cleanest rinse of a whites load of laundry. Had forgotten all about it. I used to think (as a know-it-all teenager) that it was only an optical illusion and 'cheating' to use it, (like 'Kitchen Bouquet' or 'Gravy Master' in your gravy!), and that proper sorting and bleach would take take care of it all. It used to come in a flat, glass bottle with an aluminum cap that had a little hole in it, through which you shook out the drops you needed into the filled up rinse water part of the wash cycle. I almost kept the last bottle she had, wish I had, they went to plastic bottles after that (late 1960s-early 1970s?). nowhere near as beautiful.
Underarms become stained yellow from the sweat there, (sodium chloride in sweat?)when bleached repeatedly and the inside edge of neckbands ALWAYS need scrubbing with Fels Naphtha soap, or your own simple homemade soap.
We also used to use it on a chunk of asphalt to grow neat 'crystals' too. (I think the instructions for that are still on the bottles) fun projects for kids from everyday stuff at hand at home.
Thanks for the updated old-fashioned lessons on proper washing techniques. My grandma would have loved you, she was an amazing laundress.!
I liked and subscribed immediately- great video and well done teaching, speaking and simple quiet music, (not to mention excellent knowledge of older effective ways to get things done beautifully)

You're such an inspiration Rajiv! Thank you for your incredibly informative and beautiful videos. You treat everything like it is sacred...It's like you took the Marie Kondo approach and took it a step further by infusing the things you already have with even MORE joy! Thank you for the effort you put into your content.

Great video, a lost art and so useful- I remember three elderly maiden aunts who lived into their late 90’s- they used bluing and also put some lemon juice onto stains and laid the clothes out on the privet hedge in the sun all day. You are right, whites no longer look white, going to do this. Many thanks

Bluing is also a wonderful way to keep white markings on horses stunningly white!

This is all SO helpful, I love your entire channel!! Not only are these videos beautiful, but so informative! As someone who takes pride and care into my home, I love learning all these tips about how to care for things properly 💚 Also, love that you said a Polish word in the middle of this 😂 Although if you want to be really accurate with pronunciation, the stress is on the "o"—gonna type it out phonetically here: "sho-ROH-vach." Otherwise, you nailed it! 😊 EDIT: Forgot to mention since this important context—I'm Polish! lol (it was my first language)

If you have a family of 10 maybe you can divide and do 4 loads for each type. But when it's only 2 people, you don't put a load on for just 2 tshirts that are bright.

I always wash reds separately as red dyes tend to bleed longer than any other color. White vinegar in the wash will help set the dye.

Could you do one on laundry stripping, as in making towels and washcloths more absorbent by removing detergent buildup? I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and see so much conflicting info that I'm not sure where to start. But you seem like you would have this down with your laundry knowledge!

I separate my laundry into: whites, tops and underwears, pants and socks, beddings. Sometimes the 5th pile will be delicates. I just can't imagine washing my underwear with the boys socks and pants. Am I wrong ? 😂
