    The delightful attic smell.

    The delightful attic smell.

    Would good steaming do the same? I also have pressure washer :D but with only bit off pressure I could wash jacket easily. Hmm, never thought that big cost saving of dry cleaner bill is self ironing.. I'll have to ask can I do my own ironing.
