8 brilliant ways to de-wrinkle clothes without an iron

Print this recipe
I hate ironing so much that I actually got rid of our ironing board and iron. Ironing feels like a waste of time to me. I work from home, my kids don't care if their clothing is wrinkled and my husband's uniform doesn't require ironing. So I said goodbye to ironing -- but we aren't complete heathens.
There are times (a date night, church or maybe an interview with a client) when one or more of us needs to look polished. Maybe our clothes sat in the laundry basket and remained unfolded for days. It's times like this when a little ironing action might actually come to our rescue. Instead of storing an iron we don't really need, we rely on a few other tricks to get the job done.
