My Homemade Life: My New Iron

Sunday, March 1, 2009

Today, after church, the kids and I went to Sam's and I bought myself a new iron.

I tried it out on some fabric this evening and it works nicely; hopefully it will last until I find a professional iron.

I have a Black and Decker that I paid around $40 for at Walmart 2 or 3 years ago that I absolutely love. I've been doing some sewing at my Mother in laws and she has a Rowenta that is a lot like my B&D, but a little lighter in weight(not neccesarily a good thing sometimes), that I like ok. It doesn't have a "lid" on the water resevoir, so the water evaporates a lot faster than in mine. I'm not sure what she paid for it, but since Rownetas are normally a little pricey, I wouldn't pay the difference between it and my B&D.; March 2, 2009 at 3:55 AM
