I’m a cleaning whizz & here’s a lazy girl hack to make bed sheets look like they’ve been ironed – it’s £2 from Wilko too
ONE of the most underrated parts of staying in a hotel is how all the bed sheets are wrinkle-free.
Those white, fluffy and smooth sheets seem to instantly make you relax, no matter how long or difficult the day might have been.
But, let’s be honest, no one has the time (or patience) to iron sheets. And who knows how to do it properly anyway?
Luckily, one woman has revealed the clever way she gets it done without the use of an iron – and it turns out, you only need some water and fabric softener.
Kate Williams positioned her camera to show viewers how crinkled her bed sheets were before launching into her method.
“Here is my no iron hack to get crinkles like this out of the bed sheets,” she explained. “So you can see there are lots (of crinkles)…”
“Now we get a little handy dandy spray bottle,” she continued, explaining that all she put in there was some fabric softener as it “smells good and makes it nice and soft”.
She then sprayed the bed sheets around 10 times.
Leaving the bottle on the bed, she then placed her hands flat on the pillow and moved them from the middle to the outer edges, smoothing it over.
She continued: “All you’re gonna do is spray it over. This bottle is fantastic for this because it gives a nice even spray.
“So you can really do it over any part. What it does is it softens up the fibres of the linen or any sort of bed cover.
“It dries super quick and it works wonders.”
Comparing the smoothness of the pillow compared to the crinkled bed, she said it can remove “any real stubborn creases”.
“Just go over it a couple times with the spray bottle,” she added. “You’re welcome.”
In the caption, TikTok user @lifeofkatiewilliams wrote: “The mixture is water with a small dash of softener, the softener isn’t required for it to work.
“My nanna taught me this golden nugget!”
Fabric softener can be found at Wilko’s for as little as £2.
People were quick to comment on the video as one person wrote: “Sheet antiwrinkle? Love it!”
Another said: “How did I not know this? Game changer! Thanks lovely”
While a third added: “How very surprising! I’ll give it a try”.
