Step 1: Pre-Treat the Stain
The first step is to pre-treat the stain with a liquid laundry detergent or a specialty stain remover. Work the detergent or stain remover into fabric using an old toothbrush or nail brush, then let it sit for a few minutes.
Step 2: Soak the Linen
After the stain remover has had a chance to work, soak your linen fabric in a basin filled with hot water and a few drops of detergent. Let it soak for at least 15 minutes before moving on to the next step.
Step 3: Rinse and Wash
Rinse the fabric in cold water to remove any remaining stain remover or detergent. Then, wash the fabric in the washing machine on the “warm” setting with other items of a similar color.
Step 4: Check Before Drying
Before drying your linen fabric, check to make sure the crayon stain is completely gone. If not, repeat Steps 1–3 until the stain is gone.
Conclusion
With these simple steps, you can easily get crayon stains out of your linen fabric. Of course, always follow the care instructions provided by the manufacturer of the fabric for the best results.
