Getting out wrinkles in dryer
 
Just ran across this, thought it was worth a try!

Put wrinkled clothes in dryer, turn on hottest setting and throw in a couple ice cubes. It will make steam in dryer and take out wrinkles!

Neat idea, my dryer has a steam option. It is really nice.

I've used fabric softener sheets and a wet wash cloth
gotta try the ice cube trick.

I use the wet wash cloth method as well. My washer and freezer are on different floors!

"Getting out wrinkles in dryer"...... My first thought, isn't this a rather uncomfortable and drastic method to deal with a life issue we all have??:eek:

Silly me!!:D:D

I have a water bottle on my shelf. I just spritz the dryer sheet. Toss back in and go.

I take the wrinkles out of Hobbs tightly packaged batting by putting it unfolded in a dryer with damp towels.

My sister's dryer automatically spritzes clothing thrown for a wrinkle release session. It caught me off guard as I had only planned to dry a shirt for a few minutes but then had to let it go for about 20 to get it dry again :thumbdown:

I keep 4 tennis balls in my dryer, dedicated to the dryer, no dogs allowed!! I have also used the damp washcloth.
