Having a difficult time getting the wrinkles out of clothing that can’t take direct heating, such as, silk, wool, and rayon. There is a little trick you can do. Try aluminum foil, it has more uses then wrapping up leftovers.

Step 1

Place a piece of aluminum foil on the ironing board. The piece of aluminum foil should be long enough to cover the article of clothing.

Step 2

Lay the article of clothing flat over the aluminum foil. Straighten out the garment, so that, it is not bunched up in places.

Step 3
Fill the iron half way with water. If the iron is filled up to much it has the potential to leak. Press the steam button down and move the iron back and forth 3 or 4 inches above the article of clothing. You will need to repeat this several times.

Step 4

How does this work? The wet heat emanating from the foil helps to get the wrinkles out.
