Stain Chart

The best defense against stains is information -- knowing how to attack a particular spot before it sets permanently into the fabric. Since there are so many kinds of stains, each with its own best cleaning method, it's difficult to memorize them all. That's where this convenient chart comes in: It's a comprehensive listing of stains, from grease to ink, along with advice on how to handle them for washable items. You can download the chart and print it out. Place in a page protector and hang in the laundry room/area.

This is a handy chart, but like with everything Martha does, it's pretty complicated. I wonder if anyone has put out a list of simple home solutions - like soaking blood stains in salt water, or using peroxide? Or using hot milk for ink stains? You know, stuff like that. Does anyone know where to get a list like that? I know my readers would love a list like that too.

I agree, Carole, that there are easier remedies than the ones listed here. I will be on the look out for another stain chart.
