Step by Step Instructions

  1. Dab the stain with a clean, damp cloth or sponge right away. This will help prevent the wine from setting into the fabric.
  2. Rinse the stained area with cold water and blot the fabric with a dry cloth.
  3. Mix a solution of one part white vinegar and two parts warm water and use a cloth or sponge to dab the solution onto the stain. Don’t rub too hard!
  4. Rinse the stained area with cold water and then begin to launder the fabric as normal.
  5. Make sure to check the area for any remaining traces of the stain before drying fabric in the machine or hanging it up to air dry.

Additional Tips

  • Always test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of fabric first.
  • If you’re still dealing with a stubborn stain, try using a little bit of baking soda or club soda on the area instead of vinegar mixture.
  • Be sure to launder the fabric on delicate cycle to avoid damaging the delicate gingham fabric.

Conclusion

That's it! With these simple steps, you can keep your cotton gingham looking pristine even after a spill of sparkling wine. Give it a try next time you have an unfortunate accident and you'll be back to enjoying your picnic in no time!
