Find Your Perfect ONLINE JOB

This step by step photo tutorial on How to Remove Berry Stains is a helpful kitchen tip when you find your favorite tea towel covered in your colorful berry dessert recipe. As delicious as berries can be, they also can leave behind their colorful juice which isn't always easy to get out of fabric. But alas this kitchen tip/laundry tip will have your fabrics looking like new again. All it takes is some simple ingredients and ones that you are sure to have readily available at home. The kitchen ingredients you will need for your berry mishap are vinegar, boiling water and some toothpaste. The kitchen trick is to drop everything you are doing immediately after the berry incident happens, and go and treat the berry stain. This is important as you want the berry blemish to be treated while still fresh. You'll stretch the fabric over a bowl until it is taut. Then from as high up as possible, pour some boiling water in a smooth, steady stream over the affected berry area (being careful not to splash yourself with the boiling water). This kitchen trick should remove the bulk of the stain and allow you to breathe a little easier as your new tea towel is saved. Next submerge the berry stained part of the fabric in a bowl of white vinegar for approximately an hour. Apple cider vinegar also works well for this kitchen trick, but it will, unfortunately, leave your fabric with a yellow tinge.
