What You Will Need:

White vinegar
Dishwashing detergent
Soft cloths

Steps to Remove the Stain:

Check the fabric for color fastness before taking any steps to clean it. Place a few drops of vinegar on an unseen area of the garment and press with a cloth. If the color stays intact, you may proceed with cleaning.
Mix 1 tablespoon of dishwashing detergent with 2 cups of cold water in a bowl. Dip a soft cloth in the mixture and use it to gently blot the stained area. Take care not to rub or scrub the stain or it could spread further.
If the stain persists, rinse the cloth and apply undiluted white vinegar to the stain with a cloth. Blot the stain until the fabric is damp. Do not saturate the fabric.
Rinse the cloth, then rinse the stained area with a cloth dampened with cold water. Continue to blot the stained area with the damp cloth until all of the detergent and vinegar is removed.
Air dry the fabric by laying it flat or hanging it on a clothesline. Do not place the garment in a tumble dryer, as this could cause the stain to set.

Additional Tips:

Treat stain as soon as possible. The longer the stain sits, the harder it will be to remove.
Once the stain is removed, check the back of the fabric for any remaining residue. Rinse any remaining residue with cold water.
To prevent further stains, always handle your Cornelli lace garments with clean hands and avoid contact with any food or drink.
