Get clothes straight - a well-known household remedy replaces an iron
Vinegar is said to be a miracle weapon against wrinkles in your own clothes.
Consumers can easily mix the home remedy with warm water in a ratio of 1:3 and put it in a spray bottle.
The mixture is then generously distributed on the clothes (more service news at RUHR24).
The item of clothing should then be hung on a hanger and left to dry.
You don't have to worry about the smell of vinegar in your clothes, because it goes away by itself. If you don't have the household remedy at hand, you can also use other life hacks to avoid the iron.
Getting clothes smooth – the hair dryer works wonders against wrinkles
A hair dryer often helps to quickly get rid of wrinkles in the clothes.
For this purpose, crumpled parts of the clothes should be moistened with a little water and hung up.
Consumers can then set the hair dryer to one of the lower levels and blow dry.
However, a few centimeters distance should be maintained between clothing and the electrical device.
After that, consumers can simply smooth out the warm and wrinkled areas with their hands instead of with an iron, as
