I found the sizing and regular starch spray cans at the dollar store. Try there.

Funny that this is here today...last week I ran out of the Spray starch I buy from Walmart and I tried the cornstarch! It worked and you do have to shake it alot while ironing. I like it and it is so cheap!

Me too.

My mother only put the sprinkled ironing in the fridge if she couldn't finish it that day, other wise it could mildew. I liked some things starched and still do but I haven't seen anything but spay starch in a long time. It is also a good craft item, used to mix liquid (or liquifed powder) starch and poster paint and let the kids fingerpaint.

I get Sav-Flo at the grocery store and walmart.

awe that does bring back memories !!!!! i see it at the grocery store and walmart all the time

I remember my mother using Argo starch. It came in a box. She also ate it, which a lot of women did in that day.

I bought these for sprinkling tiny seedlings without washing them away.

Or you could buy a real vintage cork bottle top sprinkler...

Or maybe a bottle shaped like a maid? :)

The Argo brand corn starch is in the baking isle...I use it for gravy, puddings...and sometimes doilies.

What a sweet memory... I can even hear the sound of the starch in the bottle while momma was "sprinkling" everything. I've missed that crisp feel in shirts!! If I remember correctly, we went from that to polyester double knits... no wonder momma loved that stuff so much!!
