Ironing is one of the oldest ways to remove residual moisture from clothes. If the fabric can withstand high temperatures, spread the slightly damp fabric on an ironing board and iron it without setting a higher temperature. Don’t worry about the rising steam: it’s not from the iron, but from the water remaining in the clothes, evaporating under the influence of heat.
Moderation is key, though: never use a higher setting than the garment’s care label, as wet fibers can be more susceptible to washing. This method works especially well for shirts and cotton T-shirts because, in addition to drying, it also instantly removes wrinkles, leaving the garment ready to wear straight from the ironing board.
These simple tricks not only save time but also help make navigating your home in winter less stressful. With a little attention and wise use of our appliances, we can avoid musty odors and long waits.
