There is an iron in every home. It is very difficult to imagine a person's life without it.

However, the iron can break at the most inopportune moment, when you urgently need to iron your clothes and go to an important meeting.

The article will tell you how to iron clothes without using an iron.

A pot of boiling water

When you need to iron a loose item, you can use a small saucepan. You need to pour boiling water into the saucepan, and then run the hot bottom of the saucepan over the clothes.

It is worth remembering that the dishes must be clean so that there are no stains left on clothes.

Steaming

If you don't have an iron, you can always steam your clothes. To do this, just fill the bathtub with hot water.

The clothes are hung on hangers over the bathtub. 15-20 minutes is enough for all the creases to disappear from the clothes. All that remains is to wait for all the clothes to dry.

Hot air currents

This method is similar to the previous one. To do this, you need to direct a stream of hot air at the items.

It won't be very convenient with a kettle, so it's better to use a hair dryer. You need to lay out the things on the ironing board, point the hair dryer at them and turn it on. The hair dryer should be held at a distance of 25-30 cm. It's better to choose the medium temperature mode.

Vinegar

Housewives use vinegar for a variety of purposes. To replace an iron with vinegar, dilute it with water in a ratio of 1 to 3. Pour the solution into a spray bottle and spray it on things.

There is no need to worry about the smell as it will disappear once the garments are dry.

Hair straightener

With the help of a hair straightener, you can also smooth out clothes. You can easily smooth out all cuffs and collars without any problems. Before using a hair straightener, its surfaces should be thoroughly wiped.
