Removing Water Stains From Bridal Shoes

Today, your bridal entourage is practicing that all-important walk down the aisle in your garden. Because the special day is just a few days away, you are doing a full dress rehearsal. Everyone is wearing the attire that they will be donning on the wedding. You are wearing the beautiful, dainty, costly satin bridal shoes that you just purchased online. Everyone looks marvelous and happy. You are looking forward to your perfect wedding.

Later, however, you recoil in horror. You failed to notice that the droplets of water that sparkled on the grass have transferred to your shoes. Thus, your shoes have unsightly blots and water stains! Oh, no! What are you going to do? There's no more time to send the shoes back to the supplier to have them replaced.

Well, no need to worry because there is an easy home-made solution to clean your bridal shoes. In fact, the ingredients in making your shoes sparkling clean again are just in your kitchen!

1. First, wash the shoes thoroughly with clean, warm, soapy water. This stage alone may get rid of all the water spots, making the next steps moot and unnecessary.

2. If the spots are still there, you need to make a simple cleaning solution. Add half a cup of regular household bleach to half a cup of water. Mix this until well blended.

3. Use an old toothbrush to scrub the spots with the water-bleach solution. If your shoes are made out of delicate material, use a Q-tip instead of a toothbrush. If necessary, scrub or swab the whole shoe.

4. To dilute the bleach solution, which could attack the shoe color if it is not washed away, blend a separate solution made of half a cup of vinegar to half a cup of water. Wipe the shoes with the solution.

5. Lastly, rinse the shoes with clean water. Air-dry them for a day or two.
