Iron...I think NOT!!!!!!!!




So at my house we are usually on the go or busy playing with our wonderful 3 year old son Noah. I've never seen a kid with so much "injury"(energy), as he calls it. It's hard to find time on laundry day to iron all the things that we would normally want to. So a few years ago we stopped using the iron. No we don't walk around with wrinkles in everything, we just have a much easier way to get the wrinkles out. It's so simple and easy to do. Spray, Pop or Pull, Hang or wear.  Oh, and the best part we make our own spray and it's super cheap. My husband actually came up with this idea one day when it dawned on him that we were spending $6 a bottle on a wrinkle release product from some big company that sold via catalogs. He started to look at some of the ingredients of that expensive spray and somehow realized that it was very similar to fabric softener. He messed around with some different concentrations and he finally came up with a perfect solution.

A Spray Bottle
1/3 Cup of your favorite fabric softener
24 oz HOT water

Put the fabric softener in the bottle and fill the rest of the way with HOT water. Shake. Then spray your wrinkled items. While it's still wet you can either "pop" the item or pull on it until the wrinkles fall out.

Oh yeah and make sure you start out with hot water. It activates the fabric softener.  It works so great and depending on they type of softener you like it also leaves your clothes smelling great.
