The first step in cleaning a red wine stain from lace is to gather your supplies. You will need white vinegar, a sponge, a toothbrush, warm water, and liquid dish soap.
In a bucket or sink, combine equal parts of white vinegar and warm water. Mix the two ingredients together until they are evenly blended.
Using a sponge, gently dampen the stained area with solution. Be careful not to saturate the fabric; you just want to moisten it enough that the vinegar can penetrate the fibers. Allow the solution to set for several minutes.
Using a soft-bristled toothbrush, gently scrub the stained area in a circular motion. This will help to loosen any stubborn red wine particles that may be embedded in the fabric. Once the stain has been removed, rinse the area thoroughly with warm water and a few drops of liquid dish soap.
Gently squeeze out the excess moisture and air-dry fabric away from direct sunlight. Once area is completely dry, you should be able to see the original beauty of your lace item restored.
