Pinterest: The BAD :(

I always find great things on Pinterest to try at home and one of them was a way to help get heat stains off of your table. 

You can see her directions here. 

I have a small stain on my coffee table that drives me nuts every time I clean it.

So I decided to try it.

Here is what my stain looked like on my coffee table:

Not very big but it still drove me crazy

So off I went to try it out.

I did not have a linen cloth so I thought a washrag might do the same.

I only spritz a small amount on the cloth. 

Then I couldn't figure out which side the sprayed part was supposed to go. 

I assumed not on the table because it was the part we were trying to get the stain out of.

I moved it quickly for 15 seconds.

So when I took the cloth off this is what I got!!!! OMG it got worse!!

 

So I tried it the opposite way with the wet cloth down... 

Nothing changed.

Then I tried it with a thicker towel.

 

And it did not get better.

It's now a bigger mark and its not very noticeable.

But it's there and I know it's there.

I went back to the blog and read the comments.

I wasn't the only one who had the same results.

Lesson learned. 

Read comments before you try something. 

Not everything works for everyone!
