As soon as you notice stain, grab a clean cloth or paper towel and gently blot the area. Do not rub or scrub, as this could cause stain to set and become even harder to remove. Continue blotting until no more liquid can be absorbed.
Mix together a solution of equal parts warm water and liquid dish soap. Then dab the soapy mixture onto stained area with a soft cloth or sponge. Allow it to sit for five minutes before continuing.
When five minutes are up, rinse garment in cold water to remove the pre-treatment mixture. Remember to never use hot water on lace.
Fill a sink or basin with cold water, and add one or two tablespoons of white vinegar or lemon juice. Then gently submerge the garment into the mixture, and let it soak for 30 minutes. This will help to remove the stain.
After the garment has finished soaking, place it in the washing machine with detergent on a gentle cycle. It’s best to avoid bleaches or chlorine-based products, as these can discolor the fabric.
After the garment has finished its cycle in the washing machine, lay it flat on a towel to air dry. Never put lace fabric in a dryer, as this could cause shrinkage or other damage.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
