Default Do color catchers work? Yes!

A forgotten Christmas decoration was just laying around waiting to be put in the Christmas box. But oops, it got bumped & dropped in a bucket of Epsom salt water. Grabbed real fast, I just laid it aside because things were happening that seemed more important at the time. Now back to the decoration, the white part was now pink verigated, and that wasn't natural. I couldn't imagine what it was but I found out by putting it in a dish pan with a bit of dawn & a color catcher. Within minutes I could see the color catcher soaking up the pink & said decoration was restored. Well it will be when it dries & gets pressed. These things will be a permanent resident of my home! I didn't think to take a before picture but here is after plus the color catcher & the washing water. [ATTACH=CONFIG]552184[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]552185[/ATTACH]
I think I will go back & see if I have any of that fabric left & prewash it now!
