- Make sure the cloth is just damp enough, not soaking wet.
- If you are not sure what material your clothes are made of, check the clothing label. The material of the garment will be written on the label.
- You can remove cotton and polyester items from the dryer before they are completely dry. You can also spray water to moisturize.
Turn flimsy items back before. Some fabrics are very fragile and can burn or damage by direct contact with the hot iron. If you want items with the following material, you need to turn left before:
- Corduroy
- Linen
- Rayon
- Satin
- Silk
Part 2 of 3: Different types of clothing
A shirt down from the collar. As a shirt, you should start with the collar. From the center of the collar and along one side of the collar. Then go back to the middle and continue to the other edge.
- Spread one shoulder shirt over the edge of the table. From the shoulder of the shirt to the back. Repeat with the other shoulder.
- From the cuff to the shoulder as the sleeve.
Pants are trousers from waist to waist pants. If the pants have pockets, you should turn the pockets left and the front pocket. If the pants have no pockets, you can be as usual. Spread the waistline of the pants on the table to be the front. Remember to be gentle when it is on the pocket to prevent the pocket of the pants from being on the fabric.- Next, spread the pants flat on the table top, the two trouser legs stacked. More or less, you have to fold the pants in half horizontally. Make sure the seams along the pant leg match. Fold the top of the pant leg over the waist. It's the lower part of the front leggings. Then turn the pants over to be the other side.
A skirt down from the neck. If the dress has a collar or sleeves, you can do the same as with a shirt collar and sleeves. With skirt legs, cover the table top. From the bottom up, starting with the hem of the skirt up to the waist.
- If it's a ruffled skirt, you should be on the inside of the skirt so that it doesn't flatten the pleats.
- It is around skirt attachments, such as buttons, as skirt buttons and skirt legs are often thin and easily damaged.
Part 3 of 3: Safe clothing
Keep the iron away from children while it is. The iron is very hot and can cause serious harm to a young child. As clothing is not an appropriate task for children. You need to keep the iron out of the reach of children while dressing.
Let the iron cool for at least 10 minutes before storing. Iron is extremely hot and there is a risk of fire. Once that's done, turn off your iron and wait at least 10 minutes before storing it so it has cooled down.
Consider buying an iron with a safety feature. Since irons can be dangerous, consider buying an iron that has safety features to prevent accidents.
- Wireless irons can be a great investment. If someone stumbles on the wire while you are in clothing, you or another person could burn.
- An iron with automatic shut-off is also helpful. With this iron, if you accidentally forget to unplug the power, you will not be afraid of fire.
Treat burns quickly in case of an accident. The burn will heal faster and with less pain if treated correctly. Leave the burn under cool running water for about 20 minutes as soon as you or someone else burns.
- Never use ice, oil, butter or soy sauce on the burn. This can damage the skin.
- If the burn is larger than a coin, seek medical attention.
Do not put the hot iron face down. This can burn the surface underneath, even causing a fire. Always keep the iron up when you need a little pause. advertisement
Advice
- Clean your iron regularly so that the steam vents don't get clogged and the top of the iron doesn't stick. You can use a wet cotton ball to clean the steam vents. A damp rag can effectively clean any stains that have accumulated on the iron from previous times.
Warning
- Never leave irons for too long on one position of clothing.
- Always keep an eye on the iron. Carelessness can result in serious injury or property damage.
