Don\u2019t let stains get in the way of your Easter fun, use these tips for removing stains from clothing and continue having a great weekend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Chocolate&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Butter<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Acrylic paint<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Glue<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Grass<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Chocolate&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sugar high that comes with eating copious amounts of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-a-chocolate-stain\/\">chocolate<\/a>, can easily lead to melted chocolate stained clothing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove a chocolate stain you will need\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A butter knife or spoon<\/li><li>Heavy-duty<a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/a-comprehensive-guide-to-laundry-detergent\/\"> laundry detergent<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li><li>Cold water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To begin removing your stain, use a butter knife or spoon to gently scrape as much of your chocolate off of your clothing as possible. Be careful to not push too hard when doing this as you don\u2019t want to cause rips, or spread the chocolate stain further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you have removed as much chocolate as possible, flush your stain with cold water. Make sure that you are using cold and not hot water because hot water will only set your chocolate stain further into your clothing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have flushed out the stain, gently rub heavy-duty laundry detergent over the top of it. Leave your garment for 5 minutes to allow the laundry detergent to soak into the stain. After 5 minutes, soak your item in cold water for 15 minutes, gently rubbing over your stain every 3-5 minutes to loosen it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, remove your garment from the cold water and flush your stain once more with cold water. You should notice your stain has either disappeared or is lighter in colour. If either of these options is the case, wash your item as you usually would.

If you accidentally drop some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/top-places-to-eat-in-dublin\/\">butter <\/a>on your clothing, don\u2019t panic, simply follow these instructions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove a butter stain you will need\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A clean white cloth or paper towel<\/li><li>A butter knife or spoon<\/li><li>Cornstarch, baking soda, or talcum powder<\/li><li>Heavy duty liquid detergent&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your butter stain has been caused by a blob of butter, begin the removal process by using a butter knife or spoon to gently lift as much solid butter from your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-wax-from-clothing\/\">clothing <\/a>as possible. Be careful not to press too hard on your fabric as this can cause rips, and possibly spread the stain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you have removed any solid bits of butter, use a clean white cloth, or paper towel, to gently dab the stain. Make sure that you are dabbing and not rubbing, as rubbing will cause your stain to set further into your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-nail-varnish-from-your-clothing\/\">clothing<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have removed as much excess oil from the stain as possible, sprinkle a generous amount of cornstarch, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-stains-with-baking-soda\/\">baking soda<\/a>, or talcum powder over your stain. Allow your powder to sit on your stain for at least 15 minutes to give it an ample amount of time to absorb as much oil as possible. After 15 minutes, gently brush the powder off of your item.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, add a generous helping of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/choosing-the-right-laundry-detergent\/\">liquid laundry detergent<\/a> to your stain, and use your fingers to gently rub it in. Leave your detergent for at least 15 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, wash your item as you usually would.

Unfortunately, acrylic paint is incredibly easy to drip on yourself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove wet acrylic paint you will need\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cold water<\/li><li>Heavy-duty laundry detergent&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wet acrylic paint acts very similarly to water-based paint, which makes it easier to remove. To begin removing your stain, place it under cold running water. The water will flush-out the acrylic paint, so leave your garment under the running water until it begins to run clear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you are satisfied that your stain has been sufficiently flushed-out, place an ample amount of heavy-duty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-get-laundry-done-in-a-quarantine-hotel\/\">laundry detergent <\/a>over your stain and leave it for 15 minutes. Your laundry detergent will lift any remaining acrylic paint.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, wash your item as you usually would. When taking your stained garment out of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-clean-your-washing-machine\/\">washing machine<\/a>, make sure to check that the stain has been completely removed before drying.

The paint forms a plastic layer that acts similarly to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/the-5-stains-of-pancake-day\/\">oil-based stain<\/a>, meaning that flushing it out won&#8217;t be effective.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To begin removing dried acrylic paint, apply an ample amount of rubbing alcohol, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-nail-varnish-from-your-clothing\/\">nail varnish<\/a> remover, or alcohol-based hairspray to a clean white cloth and rub your stain. Before rubbing your stain, you may want to check the liquid you\u2019re using won\u2019t further stain your item by rubbing a small amount on an inconspicuous area.

Not only can you decorate eggs, but you can make Easter baskets, Easter masks, and even an Easter pinata. Crafting is a great way to keep occupied over the Easter period but also means there is an increased risk of glue being spilled on clothes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove water-based glue you will need\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A butter knife or spoon<\/li><li>Cold water<\/li><li>Liquid laundry detergent&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before you begin removing your glue stain, you need to wait for it to completely dry. You will know that it has dried when it goes clear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once dried, use a butter knife or spoon to scrape off as much of the glue as possible. Don\u2019t try and remove the whole patch of dried glue as this could cause your garment to rip. Instead, focus on removing the top, hard, layer of the stain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you have removed your hard layer of glue, submerge your item in cold water for 24 hours. Make sure that your water is cold as hot water will only set the glue stain further into your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/top-tips-for-disinfecting-clothing\/\">clothing<\/a>.

If, after washing, your stain persists, repeat the process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?resize=292%2C164&amp;ssl=1 292w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-stick.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove superglue stains you will need\u2026&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A spoon or toothbrush<\/li><li>Acetone<\/li><li>Emery board or fine-grained sandpaper<\/li><li>A clean cloth or cotton wool pads<\/li><li>Laundry detergent&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As with removing water-based glue, you need to wait for your superglue stain to completely dry before beginning the removal process. Once your stain has completely dried, you can try and remove some of it using a spoon or butter knife, however, do not expect to lift much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apply a small amount of acetone to a clean cloth or cotton <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-care-for-wool-clothing\/\">wool <\/a>pad, and gently dap your superglue stain on both sides of your garment. The acetone will break down the superglue, softening the stain and making it easier to lift from your clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you notice the superglue becoming loose, use a dry, clean, cloth or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-clean-wellies\/\">toothbrush <\/a>to gently brush away the loosened glue. You can repeat the acetone and brushing process as many times as necessary to remove the majority of your stain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you notice that your stain is being particularly stubborn, you can use an emery board or fine-grained sandpaper to gently wear it down. Be very careful when doing this, as you want to lift the glue without damaging your clothes fibers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, wash your garment as you usually would, checking that your stain has been completely lifted before drying it. If your stain has not been lifted, repeat the process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=2048%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?resize=292%2C164&amp;ssl=1 292w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?w=2580&amp;ssl=1 2580w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/glue-gun.jpg?w=3870&amp;ssl=1 3870w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/@erika-pugliese-1021047?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Erika Pugliese<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/glue-gun-beside-green-leaves-and-flower-on-white-surface-1999263\/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Pexels<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Grass<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re enjoying an Easter egg hunt in the garden or playing some Easter-themed sports, grass stains are inevitable when it comes to Easter fun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To remove grass stains you will need\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cold water<\/li><li>Laundry detergent&nbsp;<\/li><li>Rubbing alcohol (optional)<\/li><li>Hairspray (optional)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Begin the grass stain removal process by soaking your garment in cold water for 15 minutes. The cold water will soften the stain, and make it easier to lift. Make sure that your water is cold, as hot water will only set the stain further into your clothing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 15 minutes, use your hands to rub laundry detergent directly onto your stain. You can use liquid detergent for this, however, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/powder-vs-liquid-laundry-detergent\/\">powder detergent<\/a> is particularly effective at removing stubborn outdoor stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you are satisfied that you have adequately rubbed your detergent into the stain, wash your item as you usually would.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your stain has not been completely lifted after washing, you may want to consider repeating the process or using rubbing alcohol or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/keep-your-wedding-dress-clean-on-your-big-day\/\">hairspray <\/a>on your stain. The alcohol found in these products breaks down the green pigments in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/the-parks-of-copenhagen\/\">grass stains<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are using rubbing alcohol, dab a small amount onto a clean cloth, and gently sponge it over your stain. When you see the colour lifting, rinse your garment in cold water and continue with the usual removal process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use hairspray, spray a liberal amount over your stain and wait for it to completely dry. Once it has dried, used a soft-bristled brush, such as a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-remove-toothpaste-stains\/\"> toothbrush<\/a>, to scrub at your stain. When you notice the colour begin to fade, flush out the hairspray with cold water, and continue with the usual stain removal process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=2048%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/grass.jpg?resize=292%2C164&amp;ssl=1 292w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/@mattycphoto?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Matthias Cooper<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/macro-shot-of-grass-field-580900\/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Pexels<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Easter is supposed to be spent with friends and family, not worrying about doing the laundry.
