Ironing is a chore that many of us dislike.Follow a few simple steps to cut down on your ironing time while still keeping clothes looking their best.You may be tempted to throw your jacket or sweater over the arm of the chair but it will leave fold lines that are not easy to remove.Smooth your clothes with your hands as you remove them from the line and this will put out wrinkles.Avoid folding lightweight items and hang them instead.To get rid of wrinkles without ironing:hang your items on plastic hangers in the bathroom when you are taking a hot shower.Get the bathroom steamy and gently stretch each item after it has been hung.When packing clothes for travel,do not just throw them in the suitcase.If you carefully roll them,they will resist wrinkling.If you must iron,save up several pieces as heating up the iron is a real drain on electricity.Most clothes will not need ironing.Silk skirts do not need to be dry cleaned,they can be hand washed in cold water and mild detergent and hung up dripping wet.The weight of the water pulls out the wrinkles.
