Dressing Wrinkled?
It’s amazing how little time we actually have to think about ourselves in a day (sometimes even if we are the only person we are responsible to and for)! Between work and taking care of our families and homes we already rely on modern conveniences to pack even more into our days.
The world sees when we don’t have time…
- to fold the laundry immediately so wrinkles set in that the dryer can’t get out.
- to iron garments that have become wrinkled to hang drying or left unfolded or unhung too long.
Regardless of where we are going, a finished look makes us feel better. It also makes us look like we’re ready to take on the world (even if we aren’t!).
Find the Time
If you know that you don’t have time to iron everything at one time after you do laundry, then you might try changing the laundry process. In addition to making sure the laundry loads are not too big for the washer and dryer, over drying clothing also helps wrinkles set in (and can also cause shrinking to occur).
If you really don’t have the time, there is always the option to dry clean. This will save you time because dropping off and picking up will take less time than cleaning the close yourself.
Quick Tips for Removing Wrinkles
If clothing is wrinkled from being scrunched with other garments in a drawer or packed into a closet, hanging them in the bathroom while you shower can help some wrinkles fall out of your clothes.
A vinigar/water mixture misted onto clothing can assist in removing some wrinkles.
