I have a homemade solution that works quite well for the downy wrinkle releaser found in a trigger spray bottle. After it emptied, I didn't want to spend all that money on another bottle so I experimented by putting about a 1/4 c of downy fabric softener and then filled it the rest of the way with water. It works great!
Homemade Wrinkle Remover
My recipe for clothing wrinkle remover is amazing! It saves energy, time (less ironing or using the sprinkle-with-water-then-throw-in-the-dryer method), money and embarrassment! When I bought aerosol wrinkle remover, it worked great, well worth the price, I thought. I noticed an alcohol smell. When my name-brand product ran out, I tried mixing rubbing alcohol 50/50 with water in a fine-mist spray bottle. It works really well on most wrinkles. (Not the ironed-in kind--sorry!).
Spray the wrinkles, smooth out the fabric, let dry. It dries quickly. It works better if you're NOT wearing the garment, but you can carry a tiny spray bottle with you for emergencies. Great for travel! Of course, always test an inconspicuous area first.

MY NO IRON TRICKS: I'll do anything to not get out the old ironing board. Here's a few tricks of mine.
Wash garment, put wet garment into dryer for 5 min, take it out and hang, if hems are turning up, hold hem (or button area) between both hands where you want to flatten, then pull back and forth over inside of washer top or over the side of a flat corner surface
If clothes are dry & wrinkled: Spray with water, shake out garment, throw in dryer 5 min, and remove. No wrinkles it's & ready to wear!
CURLING IRON: To straighten hems, collars, and button areas, etc. in a hurry. As you're getting ready, take your already hot curling iron and use that to iron stubborn areas back into place.
BLOW DRYER, spray hem or area with a bit of water, then hold flat and blow dry. Works great!
In summer time. I just stand there and turn slowly as my partner sprays my clothes with a fine mist of water or febreeze and by the time I'm ready to leave the house my wrinkles are gone! Yes, febreeze gets rid of most wrinkles! (08/25/2006)

I use an old wrinkle releaser spray bottle, filled with tap water and a couple tablespoons of liquid fabric softener. Works just like Downy! (08/26/2006)

A small travel clothes steamer works wonders... They can usually be found at Goodwill for about a dollar. (01/23/2007)

I don't even put fabric softener in mine, I either use plain water or water with 2 or no more than 3 drops of essential oil in it. Shake well before use, mist wrinkles, smooth out, and let dry. (04/27/2007)
