Well I do have an iron but I use it 2x a year. Can’t break old habits.... for beautifully hand crocheted doilies by my grandmother etc.

But when it comes to clothes, nowadays I look at the label and if it isn’t the easiest care and most comfy ever as well as stylish then it doesn’t come home. (It is really easy to do this because fabrics have really developed.)

It took a while but my hubby is finally starting to do the same... it helped that since he did his own laundry (all his life - he is super picky) and was spending a good 2 days at washing drying and ironing or going to the cleaners back and forth. While I spent 5 minutes for one mixed load to wash and another 2 minutes to put in dryer (have the latest dryer which somehow always guesses right) then go about my hobbies till the machine notifies me via WiFi that it’s done. Hang stuff immediately and voila, looks like ironed. My time 10 minutes spent or less each week.
