Ironing is not one of the popular tasks to do, but it’s not that difficult.
Do you wear a shirt to work every day? Have you bought a pile of shirts for school’s exam period to have some rather than accidentally not having a clean shirt at hand when you need it? You still can’t get away with ironing? Whatever the reason you’re forced to iron on a regular basis, you’ll definitely appreciate some tips to cut down on the time you spend at the ironing board.
A dryer can help.
If you just want to smooth out something less wrinkled, a dryer can help. Spray water on clothes that need ironing, then throw them in the dryer for a few minutes. Due to the heat inside, the water turns into steam, which quickly fades the wrinkles on the clothes. Yes, this is an easy solution, but not every household has a dryer machine.
Spray while ironing!
There are clothes that are so wrinkled that simple ironing will not make them perfectly wrinkle-free (you will need extra moisture to smooth them out). Spray some water on the clothes or use the steam function (almost all of them has that feature). This way, you can shorten the ironing time by minutes when ironing a more ‘stubborn’ shirt.
Shake it well!
For start, shake wet clothes out of the washing machine to restore their original shape. You can also shake linen shirts and less sensitive materials a little vigorously, which removes more water from them and helps them take the desired ‘shape’ even during drying.
Save time for yourself, do what you want!
Wash optimal doses!
If there are too many clothes in the machine, the washing efficiency will decrease and the clothes will be more wrinkled. So, if you want to iron less, pack smartly and pay attention to the amount! You shouldn’t save time by trying to get everything done in one wash. It’s a good idea to sort clothes by color and not put more in the washing machine than you should.
Iron in order!
Proceed with the ironing in such a way that you move from the most sensitive items to the durable fabrics and gradually increase the temperature. You can safely iron cotton at a high temperature. Synthetic materials and silks should be ironed at a low temperature, and wool at a medium temperature. This way, you don’t have to wait for the soleplate to cool down or heat up and you can avoid burning your silk shirt with the still hot iron. You can’t even imagine how much time you can save by paying attention to the correct order when ironing your clothes.
