I absolutely loved watching a few of these videos – even if they may be way beyond the level of attention the clothes in our home get! I don't guess I've ever officially learned to iron, so the video tutorials on how to iron clothes (especially dress shirts) was something I wish I'd watched back when I was twenty-one and ironing my husband's dress shirts every week.
(Confession: we now take my husband's dress shirts for works to the cleaners to have them pressed ~ it's one of my guilty pleasures but I used to iron every Thursday afternoon like clockwork and wished I'd actually known how! I even ironed guys shirts in college for 50¢ per shirt and remember thinking that was the most ridiculous way to earn a buck that I could ever imagine. One shirt = one Snickers bar in the candy machine ~ craziness!)
