Smoothing spray
The spray is convenient to use, it is easy to prepare at home. There are two recipes for making a laundry spray.
The first method: add a hair conditioner to a clean bottle with a spray (atomizer) and ordinary colorless vinegar (9%) - one tablespoon each. Then pour two glasses of pure water (it is preferable to take filtered, boiled or distilled).
The second method: in equal proportions, mix 9% vinegar, water and a fabric softener during washing and pour into a spray bottle.
The mixture is shaken and sprayed onto previously spread out clothes, smoothed out by hands and laid out on a horizontal surface or hung on a coat hanger. This spray can also be used for ironing delicate fabrics.

Steam ironing
Hanging things on a coat hanger over a basin or bathtub with very hot water, after 20 minutes you can hang them and wait until they are completely dry, or blow dry a hair dryer.
You can do without a lot of hot water. To do this, you need to boil water in the kettle and steam from the spout to go through the fractures of the wrinkled fabric.
Woolen and soft fabrics can be carefully wrapped in a towel dipped in hot water and a twisted towel. Flaws on thin fabrics can be smoothed out with wet hands, pressing on wrinkled places and straightening folds - this is especially true for delicate delicate materials, such as silk and chiffon.

Hot items
You can replace the iron with a hot iron mug or ladle. To do this, the thing should be smoothed out with hands and pressed down with a hot bottom in those places where there are undesirable folds.
You can also smooth wrinkles and bruises on clothing with the incandescent lamp on. To do this, problem areas of crumpled fabric need to be sprayed with water, and then brought along the surface of the lamp.
note
Sometimes after washing it is enough to shake a thing well, without twisting it, but only slightly squeezing the water. After that, you need to stretch your arms in the places of bends and hang them on your shoulders or on a clothesline so that the fabric is not subjected to deformation anywhere.
Useful advice
On a trip it is better to take things with synthetic impurities. It is enough to soak such products in water, shake and hang - the folds will smooth out by themselves.
To avoid bruising on the trip, things can be wrapped with a roller around a folded towel, making sure that the arrows on the trousers or sides on the jackets and jackets do not deform.
