Do you iron your sheets?

Cause like, every single time I wash my sheets they come out all wrinkly. And I always put them on my bed straight after and they never fully unwrinkle.

My sheets are smooth and comfortable. No need to iron.



My balls are very wrinkly most of the time though. I like the juxtiposition of my wrinkly balls up against smooth 600+ count egyption cotton. mushy

I know. It seems so silly. But I get annoyed at the wrinkly sheets.

I haven't ever ironed them. But I wonder how else to keep them from being all wrinkly. hmmm

If I had more time, I would iron our sheets when I take them out of the dryer.But in the summer, I like to dry them outside because they smell so good from the air and sunshine. Then ironing would make the outdoor smell fade faster.

boxed I like ironing.

The best thing to do (next to ironing which will not happen in my house) is to put them on the bed hot out of the drier.

I don't bother ironing them. I figure they're going to be covered up with a bedspread or some other blanket anyway, so no one will ever see them but the people that sleep on them.

Well, there are two sheets, two pillow cases and a blanket that I usually wash together. So mostly full. But not overly so...

I use both fabric softner and then a fabric sheet (Bounce) in the dryer. They're pretty smooth. cool

...but when I finally get to bed at around 2 or 3am, I'm not too worried about the sheets. razz

Try drying them without the blanket in the drier and with a little extra fabric softener in the wash.

Let me know how it goes hmmm

No. My Mom owns a dry cleaner, and I send them out to her laundry guy so they come back clean and pressed.

In case anyone was wondering why I'm still up, it's cause my comforter is still in the drier. giggle

Try drying them in a cooler drying cycle.Maybe the heats setting the wrinkles in.
