Adam’s not kidding, this video is beautiful in its simplicity, and I’m more than a little surprised at how excited it makes me to iron my shirts. Seriously.

“Ironing techniques by professional craftsmen (shirt)” - プロの職人によるアイロンがけテクニック(ワイシャツ)

This short instructional film showcases unmatchably masterful ironing technique that we’d all do well to learn from, but it’s also one of the most absorbing, delicious demo videos I’ve ever seen.
