おはよう御座います
When it gets colder, the air gets #drier. Humidifiers are helpful, but I’m planning to use damp towels instead as an #energy_saving option. Hanging a small amount of laundry indoors can also work, but I’m thinking of a lightly misting hand towel with diluted facial toner and hanging them to help prevent static electricity as well.
寒くなると #乾燥 が気になります
#節電 のために加湿器より濡れタオルを活用しようと思っています
少量の洗濯物を室内干してもいいですが、手拭きに薄めた化粧水を霧吹きして吊るし、静電気予防を兼ねるつもりです
