Question:

I accidentally bleached a beige rug?

Ok i have double-sided beige rug and i accidentally bleached it leaving big white circles and blobs. Can i use an orange crayon, color it in then use an iron and iron the rug to make the orange crayon into a dye? I dont have actual dye? Will the orange crayon turn beige when I iron over it?

Answer:

Hi, dear friend. You'd better just color your rug all in orange.
Best option is to buy the new rug. It can not be repaired easily.
Throw the rug, You learned a valuable lesson and so be it.
The crayon idea will not work and you will ruin your iron. The rug is ruined. Sometimes we mess things up but trying to hide it from your parents, landlord or the owner is not a good idea. Admit your mistake and offer to work off the cost of replacing it.
