I only iron things that get real wrinkly if I don't, like work shirts and such. Other than that, I just hang my clothes up in the closet or fold the underclothes up in a drawer.

I don't like to iron at all, so I rarely do. Only if it's a dress shirt for my husband, or something very wrinkled. I don't understand why water always leaks or why I always end up with weird streak marks on whatever I'm ironing, so I don't like to do it if I don't have to.

I don;t believe in ironing.

I just stretch wet clothes a bit and hang them up. Husband has always taken dress shirts to the laundry service in town. I don't see any good reason to change this tradition.

I don't iron. I HATE IT. I told my SO and he said he doesn't mind ironing his own stuff (which I appreciate, although I would iron his stuff because I love him). Most things don't need irnoning if you put them right from the washer into the dryer, pull them out while they are still damp, and let them hang dry. If that's not enough and it's still lightly wrinkled, I go with the wrinkled look.

My fiance doesn't like ironing. I don't mind it so much, but only if it's necessary.

I knew a person that used to iron her bedsheets, though...

Nini - Vancouver BC, Canada (she's the one who does the forum thing)

Bee - Devon PA, USA (he's the one who gave her the shiny ring)

Getting our sanity tested by bureaucracy since 2007.

Here we go again...

Removal of conditions @ VSC

9/4/2010 - sent!

9/14/2010 - NOA
