Accidental jelly spills on outdoor furniture can be frustrating, but don’t worry—there are easy ways to clean them up! Follow these simple steps to restore your furniture’s appearance.
1. Scrape Off Excess Jelly
Use a dull knife or spoon to gently scrape away any leftover jelly. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the stain deeper into the fabric or material.
2. Blot with Warm, Soapy Water
Mix a few drops of dish soap with warm water. Dip a clean cloth into the solution and blot the stain. Repeat until the jelly residue fades.
3. Use Vinegar for Tough Stains
For stubborn stains, apply a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Let it sit for 5 minutes before blotting again.
4. Rinse and Dry
Rinse the area with clean water and pat dry with a towel. For fabric cushions, let them air-dry completely before using them again.
5. Prevent Future Stains
Consider using outdoor furniture covers or applying a fabric protector spray to make future cleanups easier.
With these tips, your outdoor furniture will stay spotless and ready for summer gatherings!
