How to make ironing easier if you don’t like doing it: 7 genius ideas



Listed all the tips in the video

one Choose wrinkle-resistant fabrics

If you don’t like ironing, one of the ways out is to buy things right away from those fabrics that wrinkle the least. In the store, pay attention to soft knitwear, after washing in a wet state, it can be hung immediately on hangers — in this form, things will straighten themselves out and become almost ironed.

In addition to knitwear, for everyday wear, you can choose products made of 100% cotton, which have a high material density and a slight silky sheen, and are also pleasant to the touch. It is recommended to wash such things on the delicate wash mode and either not put it on the spin cycle at all, or select the 600-700 rpm mode. Usually models cannot be ironed, but they do not require this. To be sure to smooth things out after washing, hang them on a coat hanger and place them on a regular dryer.

four Do not leave in the washing machine for a long time

6 Consider product composition and shape

Clothes made of heavy fabrics will not become wrinkled, so sweaters, knitted and simply made from dense materials can be stacked on shelves in the usual way. Thin materials, on the contrary, wrinkle more when folded, so it is better to store them on hangers.

It is also important to know that each piece of clothing in your wardrobe has individual features: a special shape, special seams, inserts and other elements. Therefore, for each you need to think about proper storage. For example, classic trousers with arrows must be folded along the ironed crease, then thrown over the hanger bar. Another storage option may wrinkle the ironed item.

7 Roll into rolls

Another universal tip that will help keep almost any laundry smooth for a long time: fold it into rolls. The option is convenient not only because things do not wrinkle for a long time, but they are also easy to find on the shelf and take them out without hitting neighboring things. In this case, storage in a stack loses a lot to this method.
