…You wash some clothes that are “dry-clean” or “hand-wash” only in your machine that has a “Hand-wash” setting?

Everything comes out great. The Silk Tiered Camis didn’t fray. The pencil skirts didn’t shrink. The beading on the tees didn’t fall off.

Now…what happens when you add this dress along with your light colors?

And toss in a few white items. Yes I said white.

And let’s throw in my favorite color Jackie.

Did I mention I also had these in the wash?

I really did cry.

Any way…This all happened before my birthday and party and family visiting. So I re-washed as quickly as I could with bleach. All, except for the whites, came out of the 2nd wash with no green or barely noticeable in natural light.

As for the whites, I was finally able to soak them in a water/bleach mixture today and re-wash with more bleach. (I know…very bad.) But everything now seems to be it’s original color. I took all of them outside for a good sun-dry and don’t see a spot of green anywhere.

Lesson learned.

But I’m glad to know I can wash those “dry-clean only” items in the machine on the “Hand-Wash” setting. I’ll just make sure to stick with the same colors. Even if that means washing one item at a time.

Have a great evening!
