Put a sweater, jeans, and new shoes in the fridge — only a few people know why they need it
It's strange to think about why we need a refrigerator. Everyone understands what this piece of household equipment is for. But experienced housewives are constantly inventing some life hacks to make their lives easier. This happened this time too. We learned that a refrigerator can be used not only for its intended purpose. We will tell you more about this in our article, Ukr.Media reports.
Why put a sweater there?
This is about wool products. As you know, they often shed and fall out, leaving marks on other clothes, furniture, and wherever possible. The refrigerator will help you cope with this problem. Just place a sweater (or scarf or jacket made of the same material) in a zip-lock bag and leave it in the freezer overnight.
What happens after this? The effect will definitely please you. Wool fibers will stick together under the influence of extreme cold and will no longer fall out, and the color will become more stable even after numerous washes.
Why put jeans there?
It happens that you have worn them very little, but the thing has already lost its former freshness and even began to smell unpleasant. To restore its original appearance, you can put the jeans in the freezer, having previously sent them in a special bag. It is worth keeping the product there all night. After exposure to cold, the bacteria that caused the unpleasant odor will die, and the jeans will look much better.

By the way, you can also remove some dirt from these products. For example, a gum stain that you couldn't get rid of. Just put the jeans in the freezer for a few hours. After taking them out, the chewing gum can be easily scraped off, and the product can be washed in the usual way.
Why put shoes there?
If you recently bought new shoes or sneakers, and they rub and even press a little, the freezer will help to cope with the problem. You need to take two gripper bags (the same ones that are needed for freezing products), fill them with water, then put them inside your shoes. In this form, the products should be left in the freezer overnight.
What happens next? The water that turned into ice when it freezes will expand and stretch your shoes, so they won't be so tight or chafing anymore.
By the way, this method will also help get rid of the unpleasant odor that can sometimes come from shoes. This is because the bacteria will die under the influence of cold, and your sneakers, shoes or boots will regain their freshness.
