I never iron. I wash my clothes on hand wash or gentle cycle. I use liquid fabric softener in the rinse. Take out the lighter weight clothes and put them in the dryer for about 3 minutes. Immediately hang them and smooth them with my hands. I put the heavy weight clothes in together and do the same. Everything comes out great. Husband's golf shirts, my shorts, his shorts, everything except finery which I would dry clean anyhow. Now if you are a person who wears lots of dress shirts, you might try LLBean wrinkle free dress shirts. My husband has a few and I treat them the same as the other clothes. I wash them separately and in the dryer for three minutes and smooth them and onto the hanger. Perfect every time.

I do iron a few items that will look better… but must confess it takes time.
These are hard to find, good luck!

Default Where's the ironing fairy when I need her??

My neighbor's husband does their ironing. Lucky her. I usually have about 1-2 hours a week of ironing to do. I wish the ironing fairy would pay me a visit now and then.
