I accidentally put two light blue and white towels in with a few dark items, now the colours have mixed. I’ve tried two colour catcher sheets in with them and that hasn’t worked. has anyone got any suggestions? Or do they have to go in the bin? They weren’t cheap towels  

Answer 1

Have you tried vanish, they’re not fit for the bin, can still be used

@hyperplane they’re only hand towels and are pretty ones more for show. I haven’t I’ll try vanish tomorrow  thank you

---

@dymphia587 ah no, how annoying! If you can’t salvage them, cut them for cloths x

---

@hyperplane great idea. hopefully I can, thank you!  

---

@dymphia587 or dye them all a nice new colour. Dylon is really easy to use :)

---

Leave them in a bucket with diluted thin bleach over night.  

---

@sturdivant7 would that strip all the colour out or just the darker colour? X

---

@bottom I didn’t think of that, I’ll have a go if all else fails  

---

@dymphia587 Sorry meant your white towels.  

---

@sturdivant7 sorry I should have been more specific. they’re blue with white dots and floral x

---

Use them for drying your hair, they don't need to be on show or cut them up for rags :)

@chainsmoke I’ve not seen this before! Is it in home bargains and places like that?

@dymphia587 yes hone bargains should have it or place’s like Wilkino or savers you can order on amazon

Answer 3

Try some white vinager in rinse. It brightens whites but I'm not sure about this

Answer 4

Why throw them out just use them for your own use

Answer 5

Why not dye them all dame colout

Answer 6

Just to explain they’re hand towels and I wouldn’t really have another use for them if I’m honest they’re not very big. I’ll have a go with all that’s been listed above. Thanks!  

Answer 7

For your whites soak in cold water and use Milton steralizing fuid or sterilising tablets

Answer 8

Just to clarify because I’m a dope, they’re blue with white spots and floral blue! I’ll take a pic!  

Answer 9

Donate them to the Dogs Trust or similar. Don't bin them

Elbow grease
