DIY Monday: Stain Removal

I usually reserve this space for home improvement or craft projects, but thought a stain fighting tip wouldn't be rejected.

Many years ago a nurse moved into the house next door to my parents, and she taught me a stain fighting tip that I've had to use from time to time. It works pretty successfully, so I thought I'd share. If you should ever have to get blood out of fabric - I'm assuming Moms probably deal with this quite a lot - hydrogen peroxide will often get the blood out without bleaching the fabric. I pour a little of the peroxide on the stain and wait until it stops bubbling. I then rub the spot with a q-tip in order to get the peroxide to penetrate into the stain. I repeat this until the stain is gone and then rinse under water.

Try it and let me know how it works for you!

  4. Love it. The black hooks board (not sure exactly what it is called) with the display above looks fantastic. Trying to get some of these kind of features into our new bathroom and laundry but have to convince Hubby. Hope you are having a great weekend. Gx
