May we suggest ironing?

Everyone needs friends. To chat, to blow off steam or just to cheer you up a little. But sometimes seeing your friends can slip down your to-do list. 

Ironing is a household chore that you can easily combine with other activities. Multi-tasking like this is not only really satisfying, it's also much more fun and will make the time go by so much quicker! 

So, about to set up the iron and tackle a huge pile of laundry ? Perfect timing to pick up the phone and call your best friend for a nice long chat. If they don't answer, set up an audio book or even the Brabantia playlist (which we put together to make ironing more fun!). Find our ironing playlist in Spotify. 

Make ironing fun!

Correct sequence
First, iron the clothes that can tolerate high temperatures. You can keep the fabrics that do not require such high temperatures until the end. In doing so, you only have to turn the iron down once. 

Good control method
Do you ever iron your kitchen towels? And all your friends think you're mad for doing it? Let them be, we're on your side! Ironing controls moths and bacteria. Iron away!

Oops
Problems with brown spots on your ironed shirt? This means that the steam holes are blocked. It is recommended that you clean the holes regularly to prevent this. You do this with a cloth that has been soaked in vinegar. 

Bare careful of prints
Never put your iron directly on the print of a shirt (or vest, pants, blouse and so on). The print can sometimes end up on the iron instead of the clothing! Turn the shirt inside-out and use a towel or ironing cloth as a buffer.

Save energy
Are you almost done ironing? Then unplug the power cord from the socket and iron the last shirt without power. The iron stays warm enough and just uses less electricity. As people always say: every bit helps.
