Do you iron clothes?

Well, I actually quite enjoy ironing task, but I seldom iron my jeans and blouse, unless they are very crumby. As my husband and I need to wear formally to work, hence I always have to iron our working attire. Sometimes, it's tiring, but I quite enjoy the ironing process. It's satisfaction when I see all the clothes have been ironed nicely.

Hi eileen! Nowadays we don't iron our clothes anymore. Immediately after our clean laundry dries, we fold it and put it away in the closet. Fabric softeners also help but I also don't use them often as I noticed that even without fabric softeners, clothes don't get wrinkled for as long as you fold it and put it away immediately after it dries. It might be a different story with polos / uniforms though since it is made with a type of cloth that really needs ironing. Not ironing our clothes really helped a lot on our electric bill. Our bill got a huge decrease (about 50%) since we stopped using the electric iron =)

Yes i too iron my kids clothes as i want him to be neat and clean among his friends as anyone in ironed clothes looks very presenting and very impressive at first sight.It is my childhod habbit of ironing my own clothes and i learned it from my brother and he from my mother,and i feel it is one of the good habbit of becoming a complete gentleman which shoes the dress sense of once feelings.

Hi eileenleyva, I probably wouldn't normally have answered a question about ironing as it is one of the most boring tasks which needs doing endlessly, soon as everything is ironed and put away it seems to be back in the ironing pile again. However my son was in the mood to be helpful today so decided to learn how to iron, there was only t shirts but it was good practice to start on. I was a bit panicky about him burning himself but he approached it sensibly. I believe that male children should defintiely know how to do this kind of things for themselves.

Yep i do iron all the clothes needed for me, my hubby and my kids, That we need to wear when we go outside. And also when my kids were infants, i used to iron all of their clothes, even night dress and all too.... It looks a lot better with clothes ironed, neat and clean..

Yes, I ironed my own clothes when I was still single. I still do now once in a while when my wife's not around or is busy. I also sew shirt buttons on my shirt. Ironing clothes makes a person look real neat; it tells you about the person's character (though someone else irons it for him/her). If you see a person with crumpled shirt, would you want to be with him? Nah, I don't think so. On the other hand, if you see one with a neatly-pressed shirt and pants, and also cleanly shaved, hmm.... that makes a difference huh? :) I wonder if any one has never ever ironed his/her clothes, and don't intend to. Maybe the material doesn't require ironing :)

Hi, eileenleyva. Yes, I do iron my clothes. Especially when it needs ironing. I do this with my kids too. If the clothes looks wrinkled, I would not feel great about walking out into public with wrinkled clothing on. Some of our clothing does not need any ironing. Or maybe it may need a light touch up. And certain materials that we wear, the wrinkle will fall out of it.

No, I don't have my clothes ironed because after a while they get stretched out and misshapen. So the lady who does our washing saves time and energy because she doesn't have so much stuff to iron. Besides, I don't usually buy clothes with material that is prone to wrinkling so it's OK. Also when shirts and clothes are folded or hung up properly, you won't have to worry about them getting all wrinkly.

Hello there yes i do iron clothes eversince she was a baby i iron first her clothes before using it. And until now she was 1 year and 8 months i still have the habit of ironing her clothes even those clothes she uses at home. But i can say that i am not good with ironing but still trying. I admired those people who really know how to iron because i find it really difficult. Anyway, keep on mylotting.

i nowadays normaly wears t-shirts with colar , i do not need to iron them. But if i am wearing some silk shirts, i will iron them.

Hello eileeleyva, Most of the clothes in my household don't need ironing. The reason behind it is that we use a dryer, rightafter getting them out of the washing machine. Usually denim doesn't need to be ironed. You can put all the clothes that are delicate on the shorter cycle, and once they are almost dry just hang them to complete the drying process without shrinking them. But mst of the clothes specially kids clothes wouldn't need ironing. Just sue the permanent press option on your clothes dryer. And if you need to remove some wrinkles from you clothes you can also invest in a clothes steamer. I prefer the Industrial type one. I have a Rowenta model. It is such a breeze to use and you ca even teach your husband and your kds to use it. You first hand your garnmenton the pole provided fill the tank up with distilled water (same you use for your iron) and just a few strokes later with the brush your clothes will look professionally pressed without adding sometimes the extrawrinkes, that come from pressing the wrong way. Also very gentle on fabrics and no risk to burn anything because of the wrong setting.
