Materials Needed
- White vinegar
- Baking soda
- Dish soap
- An old toothbrush
- Soft cloth
Instructions
- Mix 2 parts white vinegar to 1 part baking soda in a small bowl to create a paste.
- Using an old toothbrush, gently scrub the paste into pencil stains on the purse.
- Let the paste sit for 10-15 minutes to work its magic.
- Dampen a cloth with warm water and a few drops of dish soap and use it to scrub away the paste.
- Finally, rinse the purse with cold water and pat it dry.
Additional Tips
- If the stains are particularly stubborn, you may need to repeat steps 1-4 until stains are completely gone.
- During Step 4, use a soft cloth instead of paper towels or other abrasive materials, as these can damage the fabric of the purse.
- Be sure to check any cleaning products you are using on a small area of the purse first, as some products may cause discoloration.
