Goodness golly gosh, can it be?

I'm actually ironing! The clothes are fitting so much better into my closet!!!

:o Kaz, are you ok? If i started ironing, my family would consider sending me to the drs for a check up! :lol:

:rofl: me too!

WooHoo Kaz - that is one way to keep warm (my new ironing board cover is in the machine - can't wait to put it on the board & start ironing)

Uhoh. Kaz has gone all stepfords

I like to be as carbon neutral as possible so I reckon not ironing is a good way to start.......

I blame my mum - she's an obsessive ironer so I've gone in the opposite direction and am an obsessive non-ironer. It's not too late to get help Kaz... ;)

My children didn't know what an iron was until I recently had to iron a shirt for work... Poor things. Going around in un-ironed clothes... poor poor children.

I'd reccomend you stop that right away! I'm an non-ironer here. I only iron DHs work shirts and outfits for weddings or very special occaisons.

:rofl: I remember being in GaceBros when DS1&2 were 5 and 7. We were looking at appliances and DS1 pointed to the irons and asked "What's that mummy?" :lol: The look I got from the sales assistant was a classic :lol:

Another one here who's child had to point to a picture of an iron in a story book and ask what is was.

Even though I am a non ironer, I do dream of having a Laura Star set-up for when I am sewing.

Well we all (DS1, DH & I) survived without burns, although trying to explain to Pip the importance of not hitting the ironing board was difficult! On the bright side, I did watch Dancing with the Stars that I taped last night :) And my Jessica Steele aprons are now very crisp, they depressed me being so crumpled!!!!!!

Kateo - :rofl:

Oh, it's OK, I'm not all stepford, it's only my clothing and the doona cover. I couldn't fit my clothes in the wardrobe, they kept falling out ...

I'm impressed! dh pretty much has no clothes in the robe as I have not ironed for over 3 weeks :o

:rofl:...I do not iron. Love it Kaz!

My DH was ironing the other day, I asked him to leave the ironing board up. He looked at me quizzically, and said "you don't iron?", I said " No, I am not going to iron, I just don't want you rattling the ironing board so close to DD's bedroom, she has just gone to sleep" :lol: It took me a while to figure out how to put the thing down!

:rofl: I am an ironer :redface: But i really only iron stuff as I'm going to wear it

Iron? thats a metal right? :rofl:

Aren't they horrid things to put down? And they squeak and don't lean against the wall nicely at all.

I managed to convert a friend from being an ironer to a non-ironer! Took me a while but it was a proud moment when she told me she put all her washing away without ironing it!

I'm here if you need me to do the same for you x

What's an iron? And a closet? ;)

Nothing beats sliding between 1200 thread count sheets that have been freshly ironed :)

Sodpet - I hate to say it but - Ironing Sheets? There is only one word for you ..... Freak!!!! :D

:rofl:

I'm a non ironer also, I iron things just before I am going to wear them. I USED to iron every few weeks and get excited when I saw the bottom of the ironing basket, haven't seen the bottom of it for a loooooooooooong time. In fact the other day we were in the laundry and DH said to me "We really should do something about that" and pointed to the ironing basket. I think by 'we' he meant 'me'! Crazy man!! He must have had a moment of insanity as it hasn't been empty since DS was born...

.....Although every now and then I have a "Oh, I forgot I had this" awesome clothes find moment when I rummage through it :)

I used to work with a lady that ironed everything, right down to her teatowels!

My beautician was just telling me that she does the same thing! OMG! My teatowels are lucky to get folded, let alone ironed!

Speaking of funny ironing stories - a girl that used to work with me once told me that her mother called the crease that people iron into trousers a C>U>N>T

Seriously!! Was the funniest thing ever!! She said that whenever her Mum ironed trousers she would fall about laughing

Now whenever I see a nice crisp trouser crease I am tempted to tell someone what a neat C**T they have :rofl:

lol a C.U.N.T?? wtf hahah thats hilarious!!

my mum used to iron everything, im talkin down to undies and socks.
shes stopped ironing them now, but still does teatowels & hankies..

i iron only some work pants & my quilt cover thats all :D if we r going somewhere nice i iron our clothes, but ours never looked creased anyway! if you hang them out the right way they r fine!
