I love to iron. I'm thinking of starting an ironing business called
"Iron Maiden".... LOL. Wonder how many peeps would be interested in using my skills? I love to iron sheets, pillowcases, shirts, and even underwear (of course it must be clean underwear )

OK, Kathie, I'll tell my fiancee to bring his things on over. Please be sure to let him know what you mean by "Iron Maiden"!

I can't wait to meet you when I get there in August. You just might be as crazy as I am! lol

In the days of permanent press sheets I NEVER TOUCHED AN IRON TO MY SHEETS. Now that the sheets are 400-600 thread count, they MUST be ironed. As for the undergarments, those days are gone forever. I do, however, llike to iron..........it keeps me out of the POLITICAL threads here.

Default I HATE ironing!
I don't iron many things anymore. Blouses...with collars and cuffs BUT my new friends in TV iron everything they wear (that can be seen) I was always a run-to-the-dryer-and hang-it-up-and-if-it-lays-there-and-gets-wrinkled-throw-it back=in-the wash-person. My friends iron knit tops and permaprest shorts. !!!

Maybe I need new friends.




JUST KIDDING!!!!!

Oh no! People take irons to TV???? I always thought clothes came out of the dryer "good enough" for me. I am going to have to blame not having any creases on "my husband did the laundry," that will be the story I stick to.

Hey gals I'll let you in on a little secret. I used to be the ironing queen until I found the product Wrinkle Releaser. This stuff is GOLD, should've bought stock in it The best part is you don't have to buy the expensive Downey brand you can just use the generic from dollar stores and it works just as well....seriously try it, you will LOVE it

PR1234,

Wow! after just finishing ironing the last of 21 of hubs dress shirts (I sort of let the pile build up for awhile) I am really happy to hear about " wrinkle releaser). Does it work on those really wrinkled cottons?

Thanks so much for the time saving tip!

Also ,I am totally frustrated with my so called "steam Iron" Does anyone know of a really good steam iron that actually gets hot and produces alot of steam?
