Default Ironing Tip

One of the ladies in my guild cracked us up with this advice.

She set up her ironing board in her bedroom to press her clothes after her shower.

Her tip is:

ALWAYS WEAR A BRA WHEN USING THE IRON.

Good tip - seems like the only thing I iron anymore is fabric/quilt blocks and I am dressed when doing that

I only press quilt blocks. So glad ironing clothes went out years ago. I always wear a bra when ironing.

Funny! Two of my friends and I like to iron. We don't go out of our way to look for it but if something needs it we are fine with it. We laugh that we are odd balls

Opps...that's an ouchy!

I still iron my DH's dress shirts...and much to his dismay, I am always clothed!
