Desperately need help with curtain problem
I washed my sons curtains per the instruction tag in cold water - they are white cotton with red, blue and green vehicle embellishments - and the red in them still bled. So I have these orangish stains all over the white part. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix them? Frickin curtains! They're beautiful (or they were!!) I've had them for awhile so I cant even go to where I got them and complain.

You could try contacting the store -- even though you have had them for a while they most likely have a vendor agreement with the wholesaler that just may replace them.

once something starts bleeding you have to continuously rinse it under water (mild soap like dish detergent) until it stops. works everytime for me. but once it's dried, i think that's about it. i've never tried to rerinse them but it's worth a shot.

I'd spray oxy-clean on the spots or if you have the powder, make a thick paste, brush it on and let it set for a while.
