TikTok user Hani (@hnyy55) recently shared a brilliant travel hack that's going viral, not because she discovered it, but because her husband did.
@hnyy55 Klau bininya Kira nakpi beli iron bru jaaa#fypage#fypシ゚viraltiktok suara asli - Sound MeMe
While getting ready for vacation, Hani realized she had forgotten to bring a travel iron. To make things worse, the hotel she was staying at didn't provide one either. Faced with a wrinkled long-sleeved blouse and no way to fix it, her husband decided to take matters into his own hands with a bit of creativity and basic science.
Drawing on the same principles that make an electric iron work, he came up with a DIY solution. First, he boiled water using the hotel room's kettle. Once the water had cooled slightly, he poured it into a plastic bag and sealed it, then placed that bag into a second one for extra protection. With this makeshift warm compress, he gently ran the bag over Hani's blouse, mimicking the motion of a traditional iron.
In the TikTok clip, the results are clear: the sleeve went from wrinkled to neat in just a few strokes. Viewers were impressed by the couple's ingenuity, with many praising the hack as a useful travel tip or a clever way to save electricity.
Whether you're packing light or staying somewhere without ironing facilities, this low-tech trick might just save your outfit too.
