I was just checking out my local board and they were talking about ironing. A LOT of them say they don't iron ever. I'm not active there so I wanted to ask you ladies. I iron every single day. How is it possible to not? Do they get everything dry cleaned? What do you do?
Re: Ironing question
I iron very rarely. Typically I try to steam while I'm in the shower, or I spray some downy anti-wrinkle stuff on the garment and throw it in the dryer for 15 minutes and the wrinkles are gone!
I never iron.
I don't know... I hang up all of my clothes. I work at a construction company and wear jeans everyday to work, so that could be one reason. DH wears khaki pants & polo shirts usually for work, and he hangs up his clothes also... he never looks wrinkled, so... I don't need to?
The last time I ironed we were making our luggage tags to send to our DW guests *sigh*.
I too do more damage than good when the iron and I meet. Just glancing down at my hand, I can see 2 burns where the iron did indeed win.

Ooooh...ironing - I love it! Yes, I know that is kind of weird
I hang dry the majority of my clothes (to extend their life and save on drycleaning) so they often need a little heat and steam to perk back up. I'm also a big fan of creases in my dressy/work pants so an iron is a must. I do a big ironing session once a week and knock it all out while catching up on my DVR. I love being able to chose an outfit from my closet in the morning that is all ready to go. I'm an ironing addict!
DH is a big ironer too. He even irons his gym clothes! But he hangs everything in his closet all wrinkled and then irons them right before he is going to wear them.
HAHAHAHA! This! I never iron. I just throw my clothes in the dryer while I shower and no wrinkles. I pretty much live in jeans too.
I never iron...never! I think last time I used and iron was for go to my interview and I've been working here for 5 years.
I usually buy clothes that don't require much ironing, and i hang my clothes right out of the dryer, so they don't get too bad. We do have a steamer that I got for the wedding and I've used it probably twice and DH likes it for his suit and nice clothes.
I'm also a firm believer that the clothes will stretch and loose the wrinkles by the time I get to where I'm going
I also NEVER iron. I think I have two shirts that might need it and I avoid wearing them LOL! I fold/hang my clothes right out of the dryer and try to buy wrinkle free or fabrics that just don't wrinkle easily. Or like pp said put them on and by the time I leave it looks good enough!
ETA: Excuse my "pp" - like Normalied said! I forgot who it was as I was typing my reply LOL!
