Let's Make Life Awesome
Back in the fall, I found out at the last minute that my son had to have a Duck Tape costume for an event he was attending. I mean, I’m sure I was told before the last minute, but I didn’t remember until it was almost too late.
The costume party theme was “Defy Gravity,” so Zack decided that he wanted to be a space shuttle. Using a white tee shirt and black sweat pants as a base, I made him into the best little space shuttle I could come up with.
The moment that the painters left our house, the carpet cleaners showed up. I figured that I should go ahead and have the dirty carpet in the living room cleaned while all of the furniture was out of the room. Smart, right?
Well, the carpet guy pointed out a few rust spots on our carpet, and he said, “I can’t remove rust.” I have an iron table and a sofa with a metal base – both of which had gotten one of the kids’ drinks spilled on it and it rusted. No big deal, I thought.
But then, I started seeing on the internet where people were able to get rust stains out of their carpet with DIY methods. Why could regular people do it and the carpet cleaner wouldn’t attempt it? Hmmmm….
So, I set out to test the internet advice to see what would work. I started with this rust stain that was made from the iron table.
