crayon on clothes

by L.Sanders
(Texas)

When a crayon went through our washing machine one time, it got on alot of clothes. I tried eveything and finally came around to using lysol in water and allowing to soak overnight in the washer. The next day I put it through the rinse cycle and then washed the clothes as normal and everything came out crayon free.

Crayon on clothes
by: Anonymous

I have a 7 year old who has left many a crayons in his pants and I have had to throw them away. I have never thought to use lysol with water.I have found that if you get the crayon early enough Goo Gone will also work. Thanks for the tip, I will definitely try it in the future.

With three kids and a husband who doesn't check pockets, I'll have to remember this one. I've thrown away so many clothes because of crayons. Maybe it'll work on ink too!
