Boil a white shirt in a pot with lemon slices to get this amazing result!
A shirt that’s supposed to be white but no longer is is not exactly a pretty sight. Socks also discolor within no time which is less of a big deal because when they’re inside your shoes, nobody sees them anyway. When shirts lose their white shine after a couple of wears, however, it really is a bummer. It can make your clothes look a little dingy and that’s not what you want at all. So, should you throw the shirt away after wearing it only a couple of times? No! There’s no need to waste a perfectly fine shirt like that. With this tip your shirt will be back to being bright and white within a jiffy!
Put a big pot of water onto the stove and wait until the water is heated up. Cut a lemon in slices. Put your shirt (or another formerly white item of clothing) into the pot with water (be careful not to slosh the water over the edge) and add the slices of lemon. Let the shirt and the water boil on low heat for 5 minutes and stir regularly. Carefully drain the water from the pot. Let your shirt cool for a couple of minutes before taking it out of the pot. Now wash your shirt like you normally would in the washing machine. You’ll notice your shirt will look a lot more white when it comes out of the machine!
