I found her at the Salvation Army. Hubby thought I was nuts when I put her in my cart.
I think she is precious...
She has no cord, however she has worked enough in her lifetime and deserves to rest. Her job is to look cute and {That's the Thing} she does perfectly.
I have the cutest little vintage iron in hot lime green with one of those cords that is covered in woven cloth. It delights me when I use it...so cheery~ My dh and mil flipped when I bought it, but couldn't complain at the 50 cent price, so I get to delight OFTEN. I do use my old baby. I'll pray for you when I delight in MY iron.

Can you imagine the sore shoulders and arms when women used them to iron clothing?
ReplyDeleteI would bet if you have an old coffee pot cord, or a cord from a crock pot, or older electric skillet, that cord would work. Old irons get HOT. That is why quilters like them! I would even bet, that if you went back to the SA and went through the cord bin on the shelves way in the back, there might be a cord in there. Otherwise, go to a hardware store. They would have one.
Have fun with your iron!
Be blessed!
