    Try a candle/soap making section at your local craft store.

    My mother and I both used the cook kind of starch. Argo is a brand name. You started a pan of water boiling then mixed your starch with cold water and slowly added it to the pan and there it was. You could use it full strength on shirt cuffs or diluted it for skirts,shirts, pants & blouses. My mother 'let' me iron the sheets & pillowcases but she didn't starch them.

    Isn't that funny how are parents would always "let" us do something. :D
    My Dad would always ask me to make popcorn...he would tell me I was the best popcorn maker in the world. Now it's like...right Dad....how many in the places in the world have you eaten popcorn. It made me feel so good though when I was little. I couldn't get to the kitchen fast enough to make his popcorn. Still to this day...I think of my Dad when I make a bowl of popcorn. :lol:
