How do you keep blue jeans from shrinking?

It depends on whether they're regular non-stretch jeans, or if the jeans have lycra/spandex/any kind of stretch in them.To keep non-stretch jeans from shrinking, wash them in warm or cold water and always hang them out to dry. This is a good idea for all the clothes you have that you don't want to shrink (or fade!). If you wear jeans with some stretch in them, you can wash them in warm or cold water too. If you've noticed the stretch jeans are getting really baggy/loose at the end of the day, you could put them in the dryer on a LOW cycle, and take them out while they're a tiny bit damp. This will tighten them up, but not significantly shrink them. Otherwise, your best bet is to hang them out, every time!One other tip: When you take your jeans out of the dryer, and before you hang them up, pull and tug and yank on them in whichever direction you don't want them to shrink. Every little bit helps!Don't wash them in hot or even warm water, and DO Not Put them in the dryer.

What can one do with tumble dryer balls?

Dryer balls are put in the clothes dryer with a load of wet laundry to soften the clothes and reduce static. They are small rubber balls with rubber spikes protruding. As the dryer runs, the dryer ball helps separate the different pieces of clothing so the load dries faster. The action of the ball beating against the clothes also softens them and reduces static. One ball can be used repeatedly for several years.
