Oh yes! The unthinkable happened. My dinner plate dropped and left that lovely splatter on my carpet in box one.
Step one – I did not panic! Instead, I thought to myself, this is going to make a great blog post! I then grabbed my camera and started documenting my cleaning experiment.
Box two is step two in my cleaning experiment – scooping up the food off the carpet.
Box three are the cleaning supplies I used. I started with a watered down solution of Mrs. Meyers Clean Day All Purpose Cleaner and a rag and scrubbed the carpet as best I could. Then, I took the hydrogen peroxide poured full strength on the wet rag and dabbed the remaining stains from my carpet. Next I took a clean towel and stepped on it over the wet area to absorb the liquid.
Box four is the result! Gone are the stains and boy does that work for me!
Head on over to Rocks In My Dryer for more WFMW posts!



I’ve heard that Mrs. Meyers is great stuff. I’ve got to give that a try!

Good thinking – blogging gives us very unique perspectives!!
I’m thinking that Mrs Meyers is available only in the US of A.

Okay, here is a chronicle of my thoughts, in the order of the boxes:
Box 1: Ack!
Box 2: Wow, that looks like a delicious dinner.
Box 3: Hm … what’s that stuff?
Box 4: Wow!
