And my husband uses the same metal iron you shared to store small things inside. <br /><br />A small world.<br /><br />Truth I used to iron everything before standing steadily on my own became an issue.<br /><br />I was a bit of a nut with ironing.

The plastic bag with damp clothes took up room in the refrigerator. What the heck was that about I have to wonder. <br />Ironing was a BIG deal in our house growing up. We (my sister and I) had to iron everything under the sun. I have to confess I steer away from clothes that require ironing. I filled my ironing quota years ago.<br />Hugs, <br />Kippi Kippi O'Hernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892291267989806965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-1366099655511444662021-08-05T08:06:36.519-04:002021-08-05T08:06:36.519-04:00I just throw my clothes back into the dryer.

She ironed everything but our underware! T-shirts, jeans, pants, even big sheets.. and always pillowcases. To this day I LOVE a freshly washed and ironed pillowcase (though I don't iron mine anymore!). I think it is soothing too.. and if I had a place to leave my ironing board up all the time, I would. I like to iron my clothes that get wrinkled and I would love to iron all of my pillowcases, but is a hassle to set up the board and find a plug-in in this old house that I can reach! I usually iron small stuff on my kitchen counter on top of a stack of towels.!! If I sew anything, I always iron the seams!

My mom had a sprinkle bottle, too, and ironed everything. My job was to iron the pillowcases. I only do that now if guests are coming, but nothing beats a nice, smooth pillowcase.

I hate to iron too. So happy they have great wrinkle release sprays and cycles on the dryer. I do not buy Linen clothing anymore. I think Linen is the only fabric left on the planet that has to be ironed when it comes to clothing! My clothes are all wash and wear. I remember as a kid ironing for my mom as one of my chores. I remember the sprinkle bottle too. Have a great day Laura. xoxoJunkchiccottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13312068546640480844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-38145906541117142552021-07-28T09:44:50.994-04:002021-07-28T09:44:50.994-04:00I hate ironing.

The only time I liked it was years ago, when I was a teen and my sister had just moved into a new "old" house and it had a wooden ironing board in the tv room that folded out of the wall. That was cool!!Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.com
