Save me from summer linen shirts

This week’s theme is WRINKLED.

Ha, fooled you this week! I bet you thought I’d just post a picture of my wrinkly old mug. That would be just too scary folks.

So instead, here’s a row of summer shirts hanging in my bathroom.

As you can see by this array, I tend to favour white linen or cotton summer shirts. The type of shirts that you have to pay attention to after washing them.

My secret to a finely pressed summer shirt — spray starch the shirt until it can stand on its own.

The spray starch may be hard on the ozone layer but a wrinkled shirt is just not an option for me.

    Hi Lar:
    Just to let you know that all the shirts that I have a perm press, and I never iron any of them… linen is too scratchy.

    Well….this is something, yes indeed great minds think alike! But…nah, nah, nah, nah….you have more to iron than I do!! Get busy! [kiding]

    Have a super weekend.

    Wonderfully wrinkled shirts — I hate ironing so I tend to go for the shirts that don’t require it. Even the hubby now has an assortment of shirts that don’t require it. I’m retired — from nearly everything that I consider work!
    Have a great weekend.

    Shirts starched like that aren’t very comfortable to wear!
    Nice looking shirts, too.

    You’re a snappy dresser Larry! Great photo for our “wrinkled” theme.

    You know when someone asks you, “If you had three wishes what would you wish for?”

    Well…one of my answers always is: Someone to iron for me! I loathe, abhor, and am disgusted by the act. ;)

    Hi LArry - thanks for the encouraging words… now you’ve got wrinkled shirts to iron… Are you sure you worked on them? I see a ton of posts after. ;-)

    And yes I am looking forward to more photos! And dreaming of a new camera.. but just dreaming.

    Good shot for the theme. Never tried spray starch. Sounds easier than ironing. THanks for visiting us at Snap2.
