I used to really love the scented ironing water you can get in the UK but you can't buy it in Germany where I live now.
Do you think it would be possible to make some? I tried dissolving the leftover bits of fabric softener in some plain water but it ended up really scummy and musty. It sort of worked - but I probably wouldn't do it again.
You can buy distilled water for irons here, perhaps that plus some essential oils or something? But I don't know whether oils would be a bad idea, leave greasy marks on clothes etc.
Has anyone done it, what would you recommend?
