I found this lovely surprise in the dryer after drying my husband's work clothes last week. After a minute or two of pondering and investigating, I determined it was a crayon! I posted the picture on Facebook and a friend of mine posted this link for getting crayons out of clothes. Fortunately, the only clothes that were affected were my husband's clothes that he does dirty work in (yardwork, construction, etc.).
Been there, done that before. I wasn't as fortunate with the clothes. :) Thanks for this link it's something I'll need to keep in mind.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to read this. It's happened to me THREE times (in spite of checking pockets for crayons.) The last time, someone put a crayon in Matt's jeans! I now check his, too! lol I used Grandma's Secret Spot remover to save some of our clothes, but it didn't work on all of them for some reason. I had to trash them. They were just old work clothes or worn out underwear. I will have to remember the Goo-Gone if it happens again. I didn't know it was safe for clothes. Thanks for sharing and I'm so glad it didn't get the clothes! :)
