How to Iron a Shirt ... Properly

[@aijiexi]

My mom passed down her ironing business to me when I was 16 and we've been ironing shirts that way since 1982

[@CorneliusQuiring]

I'm glad to hear it.

[@xziaah6j63kx9]

so?

[@emvisuals]

I think he is pointing out that this way of ironing is an industry standard practice.@@xziaah6j63kx9

[@Lord_Ivoundy_Creood]

Great luck to your business

[@Mitzinomi]

@JakefromStatefarm-yi2jg because he’s cartman lol

[@SarahlabyrinthLHC]

A fried of mine can iron a shirt perfectly in about a minute, it was amazing to watch him do it.

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Can he be my friend too!?

[@SarahlabyrinthLHC]

@@CorneliusQuiring Ha ha, yes, I hate ironing too.

[@Chris2thepher]

I bet your friend enjoys it.

[@SarahlabyrinthLHC]

@@Chris2thepher I'm not sure he enjoyed it, but he needed clean, ironed shirts for work each day. So he got very good at doing ironing, as a bachelor.

[@Chris2thepher]

​@@SarahlabyrinthLHC Tell him to try out steam ♨️. I was indecisive and have decided that I too do not like ironing at all lol. It is quite aggravating, especially when it creates more wrinkles. I'm going back to steaming, which is in my experience even more effective than ironing. I steamed a shirt for a few minutes that I was having trouble ironing and it turned out way better and more appealing overall. You can flatten out the pleats with a steamer too unlike an iron.

Hi Corn. Thanks for the info. Seems we've all been doing it wrong. I'm making a tailor's ham tomorrow using your pattern. Thanks for the pattern ❤

[@CorneliusQuiring]

We're all here to learn. Hopefully your ham turns out as you hope and is as useful as you need it to be.

[@tylerrood9358]

Thank you for the video, about to get my iron and wanting to know how to do this properly lol

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Nice, Hopefully your iron is as useful as mine.

[@FrancisoDoncona]

The pointy end of the board is for getting into the yoke shoulder like an anvil horn is for working into an opening.

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻

[@christinevalentine3373]

You crack me up Ironing Corn 😂. Great job ironing the shirt. In addition, I have a friend who hates having a crease all the way down the sleeve of his shirt. He uses a small ironing board which fits into the sleeve and rotates the sleeve as he irons. Voila! I iron very rarely now because I have a reduced and less formal wardrobe of clothes now. I still press linen items but I really don’t miss ironing at all.

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Good on your friend, that's a handy little board :) You're onto something having a less formal wardrobe.

[@nevan009]

thanks, now i know how to do it correctly

Hi Cornelius, this was a great video! I know how to iron my shirt's better now!😅

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Oh nice, may your shirts be forever crisp :)

[@ivalaranarinei978]

Glad my mom teach me that technique ^^

[@CorneliusQuiring]

it sounds like you have a wonderful mom.

[@wenterinfaer1656]

What would I do without internet tutorials?

[@CorneliusQuiring]

:)

[@JustinaEmeka]

Nothing! 😂

[@Mechanicalcircus]

You'd be amazed at what we could do if we didn't have smart phones and internet. In this case you'd walk around looking like you got hit with a wrinkle bomb but i'm sure you'd eventually figure out. 😂

[@Bablu-Singh212]

Thank you so much

[@joseanberrios7190]

That’s how my grandma taught me ❤️

[@CorneliusQuiring]

nice!

[@therowofboats4840]

I've struggled with ironing. It seems like once I iron one side and go to the other, the side I just ironed gets all wrinkled all over again because of how it lays on the ironing board. Its so frustrating. Any tips for preventing that? Someone once suggested that I put a little starch in the distilled water spritzer but I haven't tried that yet. Thanks for the great content!

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Doing the body last really seems to be the trick. Also, make sure you do several passes to dry out the fabric from the spritz. The water helps to make it easier to iron but also, much easier to wrinkle. I hope that helps.

[@kj203]

That’s last kiss was personal 😅

[@catcatcatxatcat]

my dad said hed pay me to iron his shirts. your video is giving me money

[@CorneliusQuiring]

I'm glad to hear it.

[@Vanguardkl]

To be honest after all these years, almost everyone who sees you can't tell the difference between a decent 5 minute ironed shirt vs a detailed 10 minute iron, after an hour of wearing said shirt.

I guess l have been doing it right...except l use sleeve press. So much easier!

[@CorneliusQuiring]

I need to try one of thee sleeve presses :)

[@Voltrical]

ironing is a must to be clean n sharp 😎

[@CorneliusQuiring]

indeed

[@soroushal1921]

I usually iron the insides of the shirt until I reach the sleeves. Don't know if it helps but I've heard that it makes the shirt keep its color

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Nice!

[@mh8037]

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Thank you! Cheers.

[@tesma44]

Confused a bit. What was wrong with your method of ironing and what is the correction?

[@CorneliusQuiring]

order of operations.

[@VagabondTE]

Huh.. I've been doing it straight up the reverse.

[@potat7884]

I personally hang my shirts wet, won't get them as flat as this but they don't have very many wrinkles

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Oh nice, that seems like a good solution :)

[@potat7884]

​@CorneliusQuiring it's worked this far!, I like your channel btw

[@rizmemes]

This is the thing i hate the most 🤧

[@111mckenzie]

But when I iron over a wrinkle it doesn’t disappear, It just makes it more visible and harder to get off?

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Make sure to spray the wrinkle with water first and let it soak in for a bit.

[@111mckenzie]

@@CorneliusQuiring ok thank you!!!! 🤍

[@Chris2thepher]

Sorry to burst your bubble, however this is not the "proper" way to do it but rather subjective. Water spray is unnecessary with steam action. Turns out, you're ironing the wrong side of your collar! You only need to iron/steam the other side. I personally prefer steaming vs ironing and have found it to be even more adequate. The steamer can easily tackle wrinkles that are extremely difficult and sometimes impossible to get with an iron. It can also eliminate pleats unlike an iron. Steaming does not introduce wrinkles the way that ironing does either. It additionally gives the shirt a much more relaxed look and feel.

[@mrsgingernoisette]

You look great, facts

Well then i have been doing it in the wrong order too!!! Also, your Hair is gone, it does look kinda really good tho!!?

You should find a shirt(/mrn's undrreear) that was buried for 20-25 years and makr it off the shrlf perfrct Couldn't have said it better I'm pleased to say or declare that i have a good entry level detergent of the type for such a purpose. Shouldn't leave any burns when ironing.

Why water use you plz explain

Top help get the wrinkles and creases out.

[@bridgetphillips4555]

you iron on the front of the shirt around the buttons. There's a gap for the button on the iron so you can get in and around it. So who told you that you were ironing your shirt wrong, what was it that you were doing wrong?

[@CorneliusQuiring]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience in the comments here with myself and others. In the first video, I have done it in the reverse order so folks in the comments highlighted that.

@@CorneliusQuiring I've only just subscribed so I haven't seen that one as yet. I really love how you make everything look easy even for a beginner, sewing not ironing. I've sewn for decades but I became ill years ago and what I could do without thinking about is now a real mind game and I become exhausted. Nice to know that I can just scroll through and find you.
