N advice but I like it lol I hope you can sort something out. How big is the area and where on it?

I'm going to sound even more daft now, but its on the main front part and literally looks like I wiped my hand there! Talk about Sunday brain. It must be a good 4x4 inches.

I haven't linked them to this forum directly but I said that I was recommended to ask them by money saving expert forum.

I have covered up a bleach stain on a blouse very effectively with a sharpie permanent marker!

Maybe ask the ladies on the Old Style board I love that board as they all know every trick in the book.

Worth a shot

Small update. Have received an email back from them and they can't suggest anything, but will offer 50% discount on ordering a new one! Am so torn what to do, 50% is amazing but it's still £24 and I might be able to fix it for less than that, but I might also ruin it...

Thoughts?

That's a pretty good offer! Is there a time limit on the offer? I'd be tempted to try dying the original one, and if that doesn't work, take them up on their half price offer to replace it. Maybe it could be an early christmas present!

I'm sort of tempted to take the offer anyway, not sure of a time limit, but I can use one for inside the house and one for outside I suppose?

Just buy it! It's gorgeous! Sorry, I'm not being at all MSE there :money::rotfl:.

I'd take the offer: successfully disguising a bleach stain is notoriously difficult: remember the bleached part starts off a much different colour than the rest so takes up a different amount of die - it won't all be even.

I think that is really good customer service given that the damage was all you, and nothing to do with any fault in the product iyswim.

I'd be at the top with a felt pen right now and if it didn't work then I'd take them up on their offer.
