When Cranberry Sauce Dries Up On Tablecloth – How to Get Rid of It

Stains are pesky things, and they can sometimes escape our sight after a long day of cooking, entertaining, and cleaning. We might not notice when the stain gets onto our upholstery, our carpet, or our tablecloths.

To remove a cranberry stain that has dried up over time, here is what you need to do.

Using the same solution we mentioned before, spray the stain and let the solution sit for 10-15 minutes. Once the solution has settled in, blot it dry with a wet towel, and then a dry towel.
