My Mother’s Day Treat // Why I’m Ditching The Iron

4 May 2018 Shopping Guides, Style

  *Thank you Conair for sponsoring today’s post! 

I once read that an average person (aka mother) spends something like 4 months of her life IRONING!!  Now who knows just how accurate that number is but all I know is I do NOT have time for that.  So this Mother’s day I decided to do myself a favor and ditch the iron and replace it with my new Conair steamer.  The thought of lugging the ironing board out, waiting for the iron to warm up and sometimes having the misfortune of not realizing that article of clothing should NOT have been ironed (ugh) is just a distant memory for me now!!

So in my journey to find the best steamer, I was SO fortunate to partner with the #1 selling garment steamer brand, Conair!  They pointed me in the direction of their Conair Turbo ExtremeSteam Handheld Fabric Steamer and gifted me the product to try out and now I’m never looking back!  Here’s what has changed since I ditched the old steal plate.

With the steamer I now:

  1. Get wrinkles out of my clothes in half the time it normally would take me to iron
  2. Can use it on delicate fabrics I would have ruined with the iron (and you’ve seen most of my closet so you know that’s winning!)
  3. Clean!!  It removes odors, kills dust mites and just leaves a generally freshness to the clothing

It’s super easy to store and heats up in less than 1 minute.  I’m sold!  Not only is it great to use at home, but also on the go!  You all know I love to travel and I usually pack (yes sometimes overpack – guilty!)  clothes that I have photoshoots with so wrinkles are NOT an option.  Also when your traveling you never know what type of iron they have in the room, I usually see the SMALLEST little iron that takes forever to heat up.  I just took the steamer to Dallas for the RewardStyle conference and was able to unpack and hang all my outfits in no time!  I felt great I wasn’t spending half the day ironing or looking like a wrinkled mess!

So if your wondering what to treat yourself with this Mother’s day (or want to give a hint to your loved ones) you can check it out on target.com and add to your cart if your ready to ditch the iron!  Have any of you already changed your primary de-wrinkle routine?  Comment below if you have ditched the iron for the steamer!  I want to see who else is with me!

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
