How to Get Grape Juice Out of a White Tablecloth

Accidentally spilling grape juice onto a white tablecloth may cause you to panic. While the stain looks impossible to remove, you can restore the tablecloth instead of throwing it in the trash. Grape juice stains are best treated when they are fresh. Leaving the grape juice on the fabric gives it time to set, which can result in a damaged tablecloth. Remove the grape juice stain with items around your home to restore the white tablecloth to its original condition.
