Just use it in a spray bottle like you're using for your water. Starched cotton and linen is so easy to iron compared to unstarched.<BR/><BR/>Starch is very healthy. It is kind to sensitive skin, and draws away the dirt and debris that normally damage natural fibres.

Put the rolls in a clean plastic bag for a few hours. If left overnight, they can go in the fridge. If I can't get to the ironing, I put the bag in my freezer. With experience you learn just how damp to make them.
