These cute and practical (and free!) laundry cheat sheet printables will help you decode all of those hard-to-remember laundry symbols and treat those pesky stains-- perfect for spring cleaning!
Friends, spring is so close that I can almost taste it! (Yes, I realize that we still had snow in Pennsylvania this past week, but that will not deter me. Spring is coming. Snow is leaving. It's going to happen!)
I am so delighted to be joining with some of my bloggy besties today to bring you a bunch of beautiful spring printables! A huge thanks to my friend Krista at The Happy Housie for hosting! If you're popping over from Ashley's place at Cherished Bliss, welcome! Wasn't her lemon printable the cutest?!
Free Laundry Cheat Sheet Printables for Spring Cleaning
Because I always tend to err on the side of practicality (and also because I have a hard time remembering details when it comes to the laundry...oops), I whipped up a couple of laundry cheat sheet printables for me, er I mean you today! 😉
[Side note: Did you know that we actually have more than 50 different types of free printables on the blog?! You can see them all in our library of free organizing printables!]
Now just because I'm sharing a few spring cleaning printables, I don't want to deceive anyone into believing that I actually like cleaning. That's just silly. (LOVE organizing. Cleaning? Not so much.)
In fact, I actually made these printables during the time I should have probably been cleaning instead because making printables about cleaning is a whole lot more fun than actually cleaning, right?!

I guess if I'm going to clean, though, laundry would be my chore of choice because 1. The machines do most of the work, and 2. I can catch up on my shows while I fold. So there's that.

The other good news about these laundry printables is that along with being incredibly practical, they are also oh-so-cute, so you can hang them up in your laundry room, and when guests come over, you will not only impress them with your vast laundry knowledge, but they will for sure "oooh" and "ahhh" over your beautifully accessorized laundry room as well. And if that's not a win-win, I don't know what is.
Can I get an amen? 😉

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Happy almost-spring!
You ladies have the cutest spring printables. I love your stain removal cheat sheet the most, Abby. White vinegar, baking soda, and dish detergent are used so often in our home with cleaning up messes. =D
Aw, thank you so much, Micah! So glad you enjoyed them! <3

These are so cute and practical, Abby!! I’ll have to print them for our laundry room! Enjoy your day, friend!
Aw, yay! So glad they will be helpful for you, Kendra! <3

Love it, Abby! I have a laundry symbol printable to share soon too!
I need all the laundry help I can get, my friend! Bring it on! 🙂 Hope you're having a great week!
~Abby =)
These are great. Personally, I do not like winter at all. Living in Michigan, it seems endless. Right when we think it's changing, we get snow again. Looking at all of these made me very excited for the warmer weather to come so I can get some spring cleaning started. It always is so refreshing. Thanks for sharing.
I'm with you, Audrey! We need to move south! 🙂 Here's to hoping that spring is right around the corner for us both!
~Abby =)
Abby!!!!! Could you be cuter?! I just looooove this! Totally printing it out and putting it in my new laundry room. You always have the best ideas and teach me so much! Thanks for sharing this! xoxo
You, my friend, are the sweetest! Thank you so much! <3
~Abby =)
What a cute and funny post! And on top of that, its' so practical. Last week when I was doing laundry, I had to strain to try to decipher the symbols on a shirt, and then thought, "Even if I could make them out, I still don't know what they stand for." Sheesh! Thank you so much, Abby!
Lol! I can totally relate! Thanks so much for stopping by, Julie! <3
~Abby =)
You, my friend, are SO amazing! I LOVE this idea! I have these in my laundry room (like, store-bought signs), and have always wanted to do a printable of them but never really figured out how. Now I don't have to! Thank you so much for being part of this hop!
Aw, you're too sweet! Thank YOU so much for hosting, friend! <3
~Abby =)
YESSS I totally needed one of those guides to know what the instructions say! I'm totally printing and putting on the display table in our laundry nook! Thank you!
Yay! So glad it will be helpful for you, Ellen! Hope you're having a wonderful week! <3
~Abby =)
When I was in college I had to take a textiles class for my degree and one of the test was literally everything on this printable! LOL If only I'd had it back then... #cheatsheet So cute, though!
That's so funny! Thank you, Beth! Hope you're having a great week! <3
~Abby =)
Abby, these are adorable!! I will be printing them out.. laundry is the one thing I can't keep up with heheh
Yay! So glad they will be helpful for you, Norma! <3
~Abby =)
Hello! I have an unusual question. Where did you get your laundry symbols? I'm making a similar guide for my aunt. However, she's dyslexic and cannot read the font you used. I appreciate your help and time! <3
There are sellers that sell the graphics on ETSY if you do a search for them! 🙂
~Abby =)
This is such a great idea, Abby! I love these printables! I used to have something similar at my old house and they were so practical and pretty!
Hugs, Jamie
Thanks so much, sweet friend! <3
~Abby =)
I want that symbol chart for sure!!! I have had to look up meanings several times ?
FYI, for berry stains, like blackberry and raspberry, lemon is amazing as well. First rinse spot with cold water, drip lemon juice on, leave for a while, then wash like normal!
We were blackberry picking and my son got blackberry stains all over his orange shorts. I figured I would never get it out, but the lemon worked a treat!
Such a great tip! Thank you for sharing, Marissa! <3
~Abby =)
Sure thing Abby! 🙂
I need to print out that stain removal sheet. Going to the dollar store to pick up a white frame. It's just adorable and more than useful. Loe it!
Yay! So glad it will be helpful for you, Barbara! <3
~Abby =)
For those of us without dragon scales, this is awesome! Thanks -- printed it and hung it by the washer!
So glad it was helpful! 🙂

Abby -
I enjoyed your article.
Couple of additional comments about stain removal:
Per the Red Wine Industry, if possible, soak a red wine stain with WHITE wine and the red wine should come out of the fabric almost immediately. I've had red wine spilled on a brand new chair and by "dousing" the seat cushion in white wine, the red wine stain came out immediately. I've also had red wine splashed on a good suit and by soaking the stain immediately (I was still wearing the suit), the red wine was rinsed right out. This is the reason why I NEVER have red wine in my home. I always serve white wine.
To remove a ball point pen stain from fabric, make sure that the hair spray used is the CHEAPEST hairspray you can find. The cheaper the hairspray, the move lacquer the spray contains and this is the ingredient that dissolves the ink.
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Ooo, love these tips! Thanks so much for sharing, Sandra! <3

These printables are so cute! I’ve downloaded them and I can’t wait to print, laminate and stick them up in the laundry. 🙂
Thanks so much, Tegan! So glad they will be helpful for you! <3

Thank you thank you thank you! I am a old(er) lady who just got some nice washable socks for Christmas. The problem is that the washing directions were in "code". I don't usually care about the outco me of my socks in the laundry because a "pair" goes in and a "single" comes out. Because I have so many "single" socks (and there isn't a "match.com for socks) I buy cheap socks. But the lovely washable socks I received as a gift were anything but cheap. Hence my need for wash decoding symbols. I looked all over the internet for "free printables" but couldn't find a thing (unless I wanted to purchase the free printable. I found you! and I'm so glad I did! Lovely blog and I'll be back! However because my vision is impaired it is difficult to read the light grey font on a white background. Thanks for sharing.
So glad it was helpful for you, Donna! Hope you're having a great week!
