While TikTok might be a place full of various dance trends, it is also the home to a bunch of interesting life hacks.
Last year, one mum shared a laundry hack that cuts down on drying time - as well as helping you save a couple of quid in the lead up to the winter months.
Although she admitted that it wasn't actually her idea, but was instead her partner's genius thought.
She thought it was so good that she posted it to her TikTok page (mumatnumber23), where it quickly went viral.

This hack has come to light at a very good time as millions of Brits are looking to save money on their energy heading into the winter - and the good thing about this hack... it doesn't use a tumble dryer.
All you need is a clothes airer to achieve it.
The TikToker says it is especially good for people who need to dry a lot of clothes in a short space of time.
You first start by picking out the clothes that would usually go in drawers and put them on the airer as you normally would.
But any clothing that you put up in a wardrobe, the mum says you should put on coat hangers and stick them on the airer.
This allows more items of clothing to be placed on the airer at any given time, meaning more clothes can be dried quicker.
In the description, the mum added that the hack was a true 'game changer'.
She said: "This laundry hack has been an absolute game changer and we will continue to do it. No more folding 101 items of clothing (unless they go in drawers).
"Plus with hanging it up, I’m finding that clothing has minimal creasing too! This hack has become a permanent fixture in our house for sure."
And people in the comments have been reacting to the hack, with some even giving suggestions for other ones.
"Thanks for sharing, I’ve not even thought of this & I’ve used an airer for ages," one person said.
A second penned: "I do this, longer items hang on curtain poles, I even use hangers on washing line in summer great for dresses can get loads more on the line."
While a few commenters also suggested door frames as an alternative.
"I always hang my bedding and towels off my stair banisters on the landing," one TikTok user remarked.
