Say goodbye to stubborn creases, this tip will reconcile you with your iron and you won’t be able to do without it.
Due to lack of time, ironing is increasingly lost in households. However, wearing a crisp T-shirt or presenting smooth sheets in a bedroom always has a small effect. This is why a well-kept tip appeals to cleaning enthusiasts, looking for quick and effective methods. The one that is currently causing panic on the web only costs 39 cents and could well become part of your maintenance routine.
Ironing time halved, such is the promise of this subterfuge, which everyone is talking about. Forget the latest steam generators and other popular technologies, the most efficient method on the market will only cost you 39 cents. And what’s more, you probably already have the necessary equipment at home. It was on TikTok that the user @neat.caroline revealed the scheme. Among the few comments illustrating the amazement of Internet users, we could read: “Wow! Good idea!”, “Where did you learn that? Brilliant”, “Nice tip” or even “I’ll try, thank you!” So what tip are we talking about? It simply involves sliding a sheet of aluminum foil under the ironing board cover, placing the shiniest side of the sheet towards the sky. Then, reposition the cover and iron as usual.
As a thermal conductor, the aluminum foil will help boost the action of the iron, by also heating the other side of the fabric. Result: in a single pass, you iron both sides of the garment. A practical way to save time and money!
This tip isn’t limited to clothing. It is also effective for large items of laundry, such as sheets or tablecloths, which are often tedious to iron. By reducing the time spent fiddling with wrinkles, you also save energy, which is good for your electricity bill and the planet. With minimal cost and formidable effectiveness, this method could well become a must-have in your maintenance routines.
