There are certain smells in life that we could honestly sit and breathe for hours! Among them? Freshly cut grass, morning coffee, cookies from the oven, but one of the biggest? Freshly laundered bed linen!
And for those who like the latter, they'll enjoy this next hack because it's amazing how good their clothes smell.

Speaking to Instagram, the fan in question shared the sponge on their Instagram grid and showed fans how to make clothes smell good.
She takes Lenor's "Calm" lavender and chamomile, then takes mink sponges and places them separately in a plastic container.
Then dip the sponges in the fabric softener (two plugs) and cover them with hot water. Make sure you have rubber gloves to watch out for the hot water.
Then press down on the sponges with your fingers to make sure everything has been absorbed before turning the sponge over.
And when that's done, put the lid back on the plastic box and voila, the sponges are ready to go!
Oh and, side note, you can use any fabric softener you want, it doesn't have to be Lenor's Calm.
You can still use a fabric softener in the washing machine as well as on your sponges, said whoever shared the hack said.
He also suggests wringing out the sponge lightly before putting it in the washing machine.
The woman's clever trick comes after another fan of the clean sensation, Ms. Hinch, found a secret compartment in her washing machine.
Photos from the compartment were shared by Ms. Hinch on the Made Me Do It Facebook group, where cleaning tips and tricks are shared that inspired my clean feeling and social media star Ms. Hinch.
In the snapshot we clearly see a small credit card-sized slot, and when the cleaning enthusiast looked further, she found a small plastic device that clicked into place.
On the side, the woman wrote, "Did anyone else know? I just found out this is where this goes when not in use."
The washing machine is made by Hotpoint, and apparently the compartment is supposed to help measure the washing powder so that nothing is wasted.
Many other Ms. Hinch fans were quick to comment on the post, either after checking that they had it too, or after explaining how it worked for them.
One of them wrote: "I found out the other day and couldn't believe it.
"I've kept it in the liquid stream for years and always wondered why my washing machine wasn't working the way it should!"
There you have it, loads of laundry hacks!
