Sellotape will melt if the iron touches it. Icky mess everywhere. Use drawing pins instead. LL will think more of you for not getting molten sellotape on her iron.

Another tip ~ Take the curtains down before trying to iron them. Do not iron them whilst they are hanging at the window

Sellotape wasn't strong enough anyway...  noooo:

Make the bed then iron the bits that show - that worked. happy088

And why would I want to iron the curtains...?  rubschin:

I iron sheets because of the sensuous pleasure I derive from sliding naked into a bed freshly made with clean and ironed sheets ~ now tell me a better reason for not ironing them.

 lol: lol: lol:

The same pleasure can be derived from putting clean , fresh sheets on the bed ( unironed) , having a lovely soak in the bath just before bed with all the usual lotions , potions and creams and then slipping between the sheets ( sans nightwear obviously ) - sheer bliss  cloud9:

A good start...

now plug it in , fill it with water , set it to the required temperature for the material or fabric you are ironing ( just whopping it up to max will not do  noooo: )  assemble the clothing on the board in a way that will allow you to use the iron most effectively and by Jeeves I think you've got it  lol: lol: lol:
Given the importance of this bit I think it deserved a bit more emphasis...  evil:
