Keep Your Clothes From Wearing Out by Ironing Instead of Washing. If there’s one good reason to do the sniff test, it’s this: washing and drying your clothing after each wear is one of the quickest ways to wear those outfits out. Yes, there are ways to improve your laundry skills, but you’re still shoving your favorite duds into a machine to get agitated—yes, that’s what it’s called—and then into a different machine to get blasted with heat.

Which is the same result you’re trying to achieve with the washer/dryer, only without the agitation—or the “high efficiency spin cycle,” if you’ve got a newer machine—and the lint. There’s a reason there’s no such thing as “iron lint,” after all.

I’d make a joke about ironing being your own personal “dry cleaning,” but you do use the steam and spray functions on your iron, right?)Ironing clothes is one of those tasks that has a tendency to be a bit terrifying, but worry not, it …Read more Read. So before you toss that shirt into the hamper, check to see if it’s really dirty. Did you spill coffee on it?

Was it a particularly sweaty day? DOES IT SMELL? Give it a wash. But if your clothing just looks rumpled or wrinkled, give it an iron instead. Watch The Twins` Tea Party Online (2017). Those fabric fibers will get to cling to life for a little bit longer, and you’ll get clothes that look like they’ve never been worn.
