We all love the feeling of freshly laundered clothes, but ironing? Not so much. If you’re like most people, you want to avoid the hassle of ironing while still keeping your clothes wrinkle-free. Enter the ultimate laundry hack: ice cubes in the dryer.
Yes, you read that right. Ice cubes can help smooth out wrinkles in your clothes with minimal effort. Here’s how it works and why you need to try it out!
How It Works:
The trick is simple. When you toss a few ice cubes into the dryer along with your wrinkled clothes, the heat from the dryer melts the ice, creating steam. That steam helps to release wrinkles, much like a steam iron would, but without the extra work.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Place the wrinkled clothes in your dryer.
- Add 2-3 ice cubes (depending on the size of the load) into the dryer.
- Set the dryer to high heat and run it for 10-15 minutes.
- Remove clothes promptly, shake them out, and hang or fold immediately to prevent any remaining wrinkles from setting in.
When to Use This Hack:
This hack is perfect when you need to quickly de-wrinkle clothes that have been sitting in the dryer or folded too long. It’s also ideal for smoothing out lighter fabrics like t-shirts, blouses, or casual wear. However, for heavier fabrics like jeans or thick cotton, you might still need to touch up with an iron.
