Most of my garments say to use a warm iron. Does that mean I don't have to use water in the iron? I cannot use water right now, we are having water issues, but I really need to iron some of my clothes. And give me a break, I'm only a teenager and have never really been taught much about clothing care.

Like I said, the label says...... "Warm Iron"

Warm Iron generally means no steam, because a warm iron - as opposed to a hot iron - is not hot enough to turn all the water into steam. So, some of it will drip out onto the clothes. Since a warm iron is recommended for delicate fabrics, this dripping water may cause staining of the clothes (especially on silks and satins).

Just use a dry iron on the Warm setting. It will work just fine.

The care label in the garment should tell you.

Put them back in the drier and run it for 15 minutes. It should get the wrinkles out. Be sure to get them out of the drier right away.
