5 tips to stop having to iron




The first step in avoiding ironing is to choose the right clothes. You need to be careful about the fabrics the clothes you want to buy are made of: go for clothes that usually don't need to be ironed like jeans and stretch T-shirts, technical fabrics or linens in jersey.

2) Washing in the washing machine

Choosing the washing machine program can be a great way to reduce wrinkles in clothes after washing. Better to choose a short cycle and which does not exceed 800 rotation cycles. There are also washing machines that have the "easy iron" program which reduces the spin speed. A few more tips: instead of your usual fabric softener, add white vinegar which has the power to make fabrics softer. Next, straighten your clothes in the sun so that the warm air helps increase the smoothing effect of the vinegar on the fibers.

3) The dryer, what an invention!

Whoever owns this device will have already noticed how beneficial it can be. Its use ensures that clothes dry without wrinkles and without the marks left by clothespins, which are inevitable when you dry them on a drying rack. In short, the dryer dramatically reduces the likelihood of having to iron!

4) How to spread your clothes


Who knows how to properly stretch his clothes knows that this way he can avoid ironing. As soon as you remove the wet clothes from the washing machine, you should shake them vigorously and put them on the clothes line without using clothespins, taking care that there are fewer creases possible. Get them out the best you can and, if you need it, ask someone else for help.

5) Folding

All the steps are important, as is the folding, the final phase which should absolutely not be underestimated. When removing dry clothes from the drying rack, place them on a hard surface , for example, a table: fold them one by one, pulling the edges, sleeves and pockets well. Before you put your clothes in your closets or drawers, put a fairly heavy book , encyclopedia or dictionary, on them.
