this may sound sick to oall of you, keep in mind, i have A.D.H.D. and think completely outta the box, when i was little, about 3 or 4 i want to iron on things on my shirt, my mom said no. go to bed, so i snuck out of be, and turned on the light, and slowly ironed on things on my t-shirt with the heate4d light blub.. sooo.... when you need an iron, and your crazy and resoiurceful like me, use thelight blub in the center of the iron on, just to hld a bit, so you can start appliquing on. good luck.
