Ironing is hardly one of the favorite household chores for most housewives.
We dare to assume that this happens only because they do everything the old-fashioned way, without resorting to modern life hacks that can significantly simplify this process.
For example, many experienced housewives have long used potato starch when ironing clothes.
Thanks to this product, any creases and folds are easily smoothed out. Starch is especially effective on cuffs, sleeves and collars.
How to iron things with starch
First, fill a glass with warm water, then dissolve 15 g of starch in the liquid.
The resulting solution should be poured into a spray bottle. Apply the mixture to the fabric when you iron it and do not forget to shake the bottle with starch from time to time so that it does not settle to the bottom.
By the way, another useful use was found for starch.
This squeaky white powder is a great way to remove stubborn stains from white sneakers.
Mix starch and milk in equal parts, and then treat the stained area with this mixture. There is no need to wash it off, as after drying, the dirt on the white material will become completely invisible.
