Ironing

By *ratty_Damsel OP Woman over a year ago

Well peeps, I absolutely detest ironing and with my older boy now at secondary school and having to wear a 'proper' uniform I need to buckle down and iron the damn uniform.

Anyone else having the same pain?

I just hate ironing full stop and only iron things when I need them. If I won the lottery tomorrow I'd pay someone to for me.

So I suffer your pain.

I used to like ironing uniforms. I did start buying non iron pleated skirts though but seeing crisp,white shirts hanging up is very satisfying. Tram lines in trousers were annoying

I don't mind ironing once get started with some music on in the background, however it is finding the motivation to start it in the 1st place i have trouble with, lol.

What would it take for me to provide you with some relaxation?

I hate ironing and only iron stuff I really have to. Luckily my hubby is happy to iron his own shirts for work and the school uniform.

Same here.

I never used to be a big fan of ironing, but now I find it strangely satisfying - mentally

Yep that's me too. I tend to iron in huge batches when I run out of clothes I can wear without ironing them or I have a 'must wear that tonight' moment.

I don't mind ironing. It's more pleasurable (if that's the word). When having music on in the background.

I can't stand ironing but it's a necessary evil x

I probably iron about three things a year. I hate it. I won't even buy anything that looks like it might need ironing. As long as you don't leave it folded up in a pile for ages its usually fine.

Why not look into these crease resistant clothing the supermarkets are all advertising, that way you should in theory just hang it up after washing and it is ok.

I hated after joining the Sea Cadets, Ironing 7 horizontal creases in a serge uniform put.me off it for life, I only do.it when I have to.

I'm still learning different techniques of hanging clothes on the washing line to avoid ironing! I'll keep some of you posted........

I quite like ironing - it's almost soothing in its monotony

I iron almost everything (for the 6 of us) - bedding (inc fitted sheets), teatowels, all the school uniforms, vests for the small ones, tshirts, skinny jeans - it all gets ironed

(and my ironing is all up straight

)

"I'm still learning different techniques of hanging clothes on the washing line to avoid ironing! I'll keep some of you posted........

Good luck with that!!

My ex used to do this (and judging by the state of my kids clothes when I see them, it looks like she still does)

She used to pull and stretch the clothes before hanging them up.

Trust me, it doesn't work.

I didn't do any ironing in the five years I was with her, but am so glad that i'm now ironing my clothes again - they just look so much smarter.

I always send my children back to her in nicely ironed clothes and with their school uniforms neatly ironed too.

You haven't tried, have you?!!

It actually does work on some clothes, the trick is in what you buy, but in my ongoing experiment I've discovered the parallel lines concept ( ™ ) - with positive results!!

.......& as for ironing jeans, that's bordering on obsessiveness!!

I love ironing, learnt to do it properly in the army. Nobody else in the house is allowed to do it. I finally have a big ironing board now, that suits my height. The slight bending for long periods used to play havoc with my back. Now I get my MP3 player on, earplugs in, full blast and can crack on for 4 or 5 hours. I even like the smell! Only stop to gulp down tea.
