Like me, you dream of not wasting your time ironing.
So no doubt, this article is for you!
I have implemented a formidable strategy:clever folding.
The goal ? Get rid of the chore of ironing. I'm sure you'll adopt it. Watch:
I used to spend hours ironing.
As I didn't like it, I was waiting for the last moment, when my basket was overflowing with laundry...
Cornered, I ended up complying. But what a waste of time!
Like you, I thought it was essential. Well, no!
My solution? Simply folding. But not just anyhow.
For your laundry to be spotless, remember to take it out of your washing machine at the end of your wash cycle.
If you wait too long, your laundry will take on unsightly creases that won't come out.
A lot of your laundry will go in there automatically.
Here too, a crucial phase: take out your clothes as soon as they dry!
Do not wait, because then it will still be warm and the fibers very flexible.
Your folding will be done quickly and easily.
Please hang tight your clothes, sheets, towels... for an impeccable finish.
No worries ! Moreover, often some of the laundry does not fit.
Crucial phase: Hang your laundry well on the washing line or your drying rack.
The time you will waste (a little) taking care of this step will allow you not to go back.
Personally, I give each item of clothing a quick shake before putting it on.
I stretch it a little.
And I'm very careful that the hems and sleeves of my clothes are not turned.
It sounds obvious, but often this step is sloppy and causes creases that make ironing mandatory.
It's true, I still have some clothes that resist this strategy (some shirts for example), but so few!
So I keep my old iron for those last minute touches.
And if you want a little help, you can always fall back on a laundry folder.
