A unlikely gate, for any queue. Spin until everyone is through. Forget something? To bad for you. Can’t go backwards, though sometimes they do. What am I?

I come in many different shapes and sizes. I am not alive but hold something that is. I can be found outside or inside. I do not hold tea but part of my name is shared with a vessel that does.

Doing it to a shirt Doing it to hair Flattening a skirt It's more than hot air

I rise by the fire, but shrink when I'm spent, Add th to my name and I'm a wide measurement.

I make your house a welcoming space,Adding a touch of style to the place.From painted walls to a draped curtain,What makes a home feel yours? For certain!
