Carrickmacross lace is an exquisite piece of embroidery, with intricate designs and fine details. It's no wonder some people treat it like a piece of art, and that can make it hard to deal with accidents. Toothpaste spills can be especially difficult to remove, leaving behind unsightly stains.

But don't worry, cleaning toothpaste stains from Carrickmacross lace doesn't have to be a daunting task. Follow steps below to get your lace back to its former glory!

What You'll Need:

  • Clean water
  • Dishwashing soap or laundry detergent
  • A soft-bristled toothbrush
  • White cotton fabric scraps
  • Towels

Steps:

  1. Soak the item in clean water right away to loosen the stain.
  2. Mix dishwashing liquid/laundry detergent into the water, about a teaspoon for every cup of water.
  3. Gently scrub the stained area with a soft-bristled toothbrush.
  4. Allow the lace to soak for 10 minutes in the soapy water.
  5. Rinse off the toothpaste residue with cold water.
  6. If the stain is still visible after rinsing, dab it with white cotton fabric scraps, saturating the stain with clean water afterwards.
  7. Gently pat the lace dry with a towel.
