Nothing, nothing I tell you!

Clearly what I've taught my kids has gone in one ear and out the other.

Linnea has a pretty eggshell/white jacket, that was an expensive rare thrift find. She adores that jacket.

She washed it with something blue and.... it came out of the washer blue.

What did she do?

Did she remember my years and years and repetition after repetition lesson of "if you have a stain on your clothing do NOT put it in the dryer. Hang it to dry and we'll deal with it."

No, she did not. Into the dryer it went. 😱😰😥

She has called and asked what to do. Um, trash it? Because I've never been able to get anything back once the stain has been set.

But she really loves the jacket, so we'll try a round of Rit Dye Remover and hope.

maybe she'll decide she likes a blue jacket... or maybe this will be the sad lesson that finally gets her to understand why you don't put stained things in the dryer? too bad though

It's blotches of blue, sigh. I still have to try the dye remover, and if it doesn't work, I'll suggest dying the damn thing. We shall see.
