Using a soft cloth, begin to blot the stain with warm water. Be sure to only blot - don't rub wine stain into the fabric.
Mix equal parts white vinegar and salt to form a paste, making sure to dissolve the salt completely. Then, apply paste directly to the stain and let it sit for approximately 10 minutes.
After letting the paste sit for about 10 minutes, rinse the stained area with cold water. Continue to rinse until all the paste is removed. Once the paste has been rinsed away, fill a sink or bowl with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild laundry detergent. Soak the stained area for 15 minutes, then gently rub the fabric to remove the wine stain. Finally, rinse the area once again with cold water.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
