All I can think of is that I forgot about a Poise Pad. The grands live far away, so no way something got stashed near my sorting of laundry.

I didn't want crystals all over in my washer, so I decided to forego this method.<br /><br />Yep, each item needed to be shook right-side- AND wrong-side-out. Very not fun in 28 degree weather. I discovered the garden fence is great for beating clothes against! After wiping as much gunk out of my washer as I could, I ran an empty hot wash before splitting my load in half and re-washing. Also dried extra-long. Swept my path through the house in case any pieces had dropped. Finally satisfied all's back to normal. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7716564847065501103.post-72351273637938227872014-06-26T14:46:28.789-04:002014-06-26T14:46:28.789-04:00Glad I'm not the only one!

Today,...Three years later, your post is still hot. Today, I picked up a pile of laundry and after quickly assessing these items could be washed together(I am a serial separator)I promptly dropped them all, plus a few extras from the laundry room, into my machine. As I walked by the "finished" load with a load from the dryer, something "frothy" caught my eye. I thought, oh I washed a note. NO, it was a goodnight pull up courtesy of my six year old. Placed with love inside her gown within the pile of clothes. I shook the clothes in the laundry room, thinking the blobs would dry and I could sweep them up later, I scooped most of it out of the machine with a sturdy postcard, used the vacuum to remove the rest, then thought to "check" on next step. So happy for your blog. Now, I will put those clothes in the dryer and complete my washer cleaning.<br />Misery loves company, so glad I'm not alone.

Thanks for all the info, we had no idea what was best but these comments were very helpful (although I saw it all AFTER we shook the beads all out in front of our washer/dryer that is open to the hallway). needless to say we are all covered and are now trying to clean up the floor too (beware: very slippery on the tile).

They stick to stuff but then when you try to pick them up they don't want to stick to your hand. I found your blog because the beads were falling out of my babys diaper and she didn't know it was from her diaper. She thought it was part of a muffin or something so she started trying to eat it and was trying to wipe the beads off her tongue going "ughhhhh" XP making that face. it takes a lot of time to clean those little beads upsarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7716564847065501103.post-52967344287691681572011-05-04T01:34:10.794-04:002011-05-04T01:34:10.794-04:00Salt breaks up and dissolves the beads!

I was so proud of myself for getting my laundry done, my house dusted, and my floors cleaned. Then I went down to put the last load of laundry in the dryer and realized my son had thrown his diaper down with his pajamas, and I hadn't noticed.<br /><br />After reading your blog, which was very helpful, I gathered my jellied wet clothes together to take them outside to shake. As I opened the door, I was dismayed to see that it was raining out. But as I got outside, I realized it was actually sleeting! So it turns out that diaper jelly looks the same as sleet. There was no point in crying, so I just rolled my eyes and shook my head and the clothes.<br /><br />Thanks for the advice. We'll see how things come out.
