Best Press no longer sacred
Well, after multiple raves about Best Press, I purchased a small size bottle from JF and yes it is very good. ..much better than supermarket spray starch. I kept it in my sewing room...a room that is all mine...or so I thought. I came home and found DH ironing his clothes with it. He claims out loud "this is great stuff!! So glad I checked your sewing room out. I knew you had something like this." half the bottle was gone.
aggghhhhhh I now have to hide it.

If my husband ironed anything I would probably faint on the spot. I've been married over 30 years and I have never seen my husband anywhere near an iron. But as I think about it my husband won't come in the sewing room because he is afraid of "THE BIG GIANT NEEDLE." You should hear him cry if he steps on a pin in the living room. I have always told him that he could sever a limb and not fuss as much as when he steps on a pin!
Can you get a real "girly" scent of Best Press?

Nanny ... buy it by the gallon, not as expensive (still more then the supermarket stuff though). You can also dilute it if you want, I get good results with a 2 part BP to 1 part water dilute in a small spray bottle.

Get ready for JAF sale the day after Thanksgiving. Notions including Best Press will be half off. You need to have a stash on hand so you don't run out. Let him buy the next bottle. Then maybe he will be more frugal.

There have been several threads on this board about homemade best press. I haven't tried it but I am about to. Sounds interesting.
