Messes - Wine Stains

Wine Stains

Hey! Every mom is allowed to drink some wine after a stressful day. Unfortunately, this will most likely lead to more messes. My number 1 solution for wine stains is to buy a Wine Away. Go and buy this right now. It’s available on amazon for $9. I’m serious, go buy this now. As my mom always said, “it’s always better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it”. You literally just spray it on, wait a couple minutes, and blot away the mess. It’s magic, I swear.

Perhaps, you are reading this because you have a stain RIGHT NOW and no Wine Away. I’ve been there and done that. Here’s a method I used that worked.
  1. DO NOT RUB THE STAIN! This will make it harder to lift the liquid from the material. After the spill, immediately blot the stain with some paper towels to lift as much liquid as possible.
  2. Cover the stain in salt, and I mean a lot of salt. The salt will draw the moisture out of the fabric. Let this dry (waiting several hours, or leave to set overnight).
  3. Vacuum up the dried salt. And wa-la you have a wine-free couch/carpet.
