Oh Fiddlesticks!!

Morning Everyone, hope you are having a good weekend.

I need to share or I'll cry!

I'm NOT having a successful weekend with colours at all. Firstly I dyed my "dyed blonde" hair (a natural dark brown) last night = gothic black result (sigh! panic!! sigh again!!! :o ).

In my attempt at cleaning my sofas (two and a three seater) I stripped all the covers off yesterday, washed and dried them all and have just gone to put them all back together and for some unexplained reason there are blue/pink colour splodges in various obvious places :mad: - WHY?!!!:confused: I washed them without anything else. I've washed them several times before without incident ... it's not my weekend for colours! Does anyone have any tips I could try? One of my friends introduced me to soda crystals - would they help to remove the colour splodges? The normal colour of my suite is a biscuity beige.

Thank you all ... now, where are the kleenex :cry: xx
