Video Transcript

"Today, we're talking about everything to do with ironing. Not only just the ironing itself, but your clothes and some of the upkeep of your clothes. Now, I understand sometimes when you do your laundry you can't always get to your ironing on the same day. Things get busy, life is busy. You have to pick up the kids, so it kind of sits in the basket. Or if you're like me and you have a husband with good intentions; he does the laundry but he doesn't really do the ironing. That's what happened here. See this? Good intentions but a lot of wrinkles. I can fix it. What you want to do is you want to get your clothes and you want to shake. Just give it a good shake, get it back in some kind of shape. There you go. Then you want to just smooth it. Smooth it over. There you go. Poor dress, sitting in the basket for two weeks. Give it some TLC. Get all of the wrinkles out. If they're still not coming out you can use a little bit of spray starch. Just a little. You don't want it to get too stiff. You want it to be loved. You want to start your ironing the things that are in good shape. You do the same thing with a man's shirt. Shake it out. Make sure the collars are not stuck...cuffs. So, two things to remember. Shake and smooth, shake and smooth. That's the way to get some wrinkles out of things that have been left in your basket. Are you ready? Come on, let's get ironing."
