Accidentally spilled some sparkling wine on your favorite area rug? While it may seem like a daunting task to get the stain out, there are several methods you can use that can easily remove the stained area without damaging the rug.
The first step is to blot the stained area with a white cloth or paper towels. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing the area as this can cause further damage to rug's fibers. Blot the area until you have soaked up as much of the liquid as possible.
Once you have blotted up as much liquid as you can, soak the stained area with cold water to dilute the remaining stain. Continue to blot the area with a cloth or paper towel to soak up the water.
Create a cleaning solution by combining 1 teaspoon of liquid dish detergent, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, and 2 cups of cold water. Mix the ingredients together and pour the solution onto the stained area.
Blot the stained area with a clean cloth or paper towel and allow the solution to sit for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, use another clean cloth or paper towel to blot the area dry again.
Rinse area again with warm water, using another clean cloth or paper towel to absorb the water.
Once you have removed as much of the water and cleaning solution as possible, let area air dry completely.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
