Nov. 22, 2005: Bypass Your Ironing Board

Fill any spray bottle with a couple tablespoons of fabric softener and the rest water. Lightly mist/spray a wrinkled piece of clothing and drop into the dryer for 5-10 minutes (along with a clean bath towel or two to create "tumbling" of the items.) Out will come fresh, warm, clean smelling, de-wrinkled clothing without ironing! Mini-dry clean effect as well! Use for children's t-shirts as well as professional clothing items and save big money off your dry cleaning bill!
