What is your system for matching missing socks? (photos)

I keep mine in a basket on top of my dryer.  Every so often, I'll dump the basket on the floor and match them up.

I stick mine in a cabinet above the dryer.  When I have an extra one, I'll check through my stash.

I put single socks back in the person's drawer. They're usually not lost, just in the next load of laundry.

I keep a bag of mismatched socks hanging in my laundry room closet. When it's full, I dump it and have family members see if they can match them up. My dd's, however, like wearing mismatched socks, so they often just take the singles and put them in their sock drawers.

We do the same as Kim except it's a wrinkled up paper bag instead of a pretty lined basket!! biggrin.gif

I do have some extras in a closet, and go through them when I do laundry.   However, since I have all girls, they all wear mis-matched socks ('tis the fashion) so I really don't even worry about matching them any more.

No one at my house cares if the socks match.

I will usually put them in a drawer and at some point try to match them up, I try to buy the same socks for myself so it doesn't matter.  I have a ton of mismatched socks for my girls and sometimes I will do the mismatched sock thing because I would have to get rid of so many if I didn't.

For some reason they all wind up on my dresser. It's never many- I think the most I've had on there at one time is about 5 socks, so it's no big deal...they almost always turn up in the next load or 2.

I just stick them back in the dryer!!!

 

I figure soon or later I will have a match!
