HOW TO CLEAN YOUR OUTDOOR UMBRELLA | TURNED INTO | HOW TO DYE AN OUTDOOR UMBRELLA!! WHOOPS! 

Glad it worked out and you were able to keep it out of the landfill. Cheers

Hi Leslie! You did a great job transforming your umbrella. I had no idea the fabric could removed for washing. Thanks!!

Have the exact same umbrella and canopy color. We too, left it out all winter. Mildrew and Ash stains that won't come out. Tried washing and soaking it in oxy and some bleach...still stained. Thank you for the dying process!

A outside mold and mildew spray would have really helped. I treated mine and it all washed right off.

I love how relatable you are! Great job! Mine is white with black stripes.

I love this video! (This is the type of thing that always happens to me--projects rarely go as planned...) Not what I expected, but I love your ingenuity--I never would've thought of that! I wouldn't have a place to hose off the dyed version. So glad you didn't just toss it!

You are so talented and smart Leslie

Oh my goodness... God bless you for your perseverance! I would have been sick to think it didn’t clean off after the second try! We have a rail fence dividing the Town Park and our back yard. We painted it a sage green because we were so sick of the “green slimy mold every spring”. We either had to try and wash 100’s of feet of fence or paint..... so with the fence painted green, we don’t notice it as much...LOL!!!! But it is under a row of tall pine trees. All that work right? LOL!!! So grand save !

I've never thought to take the umbrella fabric down and wash it...duh! Great job!!!! And you saved yourself a lot of money....way to go!!!!

It looks great !!!! I bought a white Martha Stewart umbrella last year , it has little tassels(cheaply made tassels) , and I need to clean it . The tassels are already trying to fall off!!! Wish me luck!! Thanks for the informative video today !!! Have a great rest of the week! SHERRY @ QUEEN BEEZ VINTAGE !!!

Manufacturer of my umbrella cover says to spot treat and that a washing machine will stretch out the fibers. I just spot treated with a little laundry soap and water at the edges where dirt collected.Think Wet and Forget is a good method to try before usng a light bleach soak (if i had the mildew issue).

Thanks for the tip. My umbrella is in need of some tlc.

Nice tip you shared that you can wash your outdoor umbrella! Who knew... 😊 Even if you couldn’t wash it to get the spots out of yours, dying it was a great idea! 🥰 It looks good. TFS!

Yes u can dye them, and paint them, yes painting fabric is easy,

Great recovery, Leslie!

What a great idea.

where did you get the outdoor rug in this video its absolutely gorgeous

Wouaaa ! Good job, Leslie ! 🤗👍🏻🤎

I think it came out lighter because you did not set the dye. It's still much better, and you did a great job.

You are a problem solver. Love it!

You can also buy a replacement fabric but ingenious nevertheless. Thanks!

Great job!!

Lol can't stop watching the bug inside the bucket at 5:50

6:51 😂😂😂😂 THANKS! Cracked me up! I needed that👍 Btw, it came out so much better than it was. Nice job

Hi Leslie I just got one of those umbrellas for Free!! And also need some TLC. Can you tell me what kind of dye you used, also can you show how to put it back

Wow, that turned out amazing!!! Did you order your apron from.. Dexter?! 😉😂🤣

WOW, yes pls!

Prepare a solution of 1 cup bleach and ¼ cup mild soap per gallon of clean water. Allow mixture to soak into fabric for up to 15 minutes. Clean with a soft bristle brush. Rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed. Air dry. Repeat if necessary.

This girl is so charming, I'm in love!

Thank you!

Buzz your backyard....woof

Nope too much involved. Being all I do is work.Well I decided to spray mine with some detergent.in a small spray bottle.Reslove bottle I kept.Perfect.than used my Sunjoe, XSpx,3000. Xtream.irs a power washer , than sprayed.Took all green,dirt ,off like new now.💫

no way i’m taking mine off i’ll never get it back on lol

Soaking it in Oxiclean & Tide detergent may have worked.

I use wet and forget to remove mold and mildew from my umbrella. It is made to use on siding.

Yes it's better, but miles away from black, but at least u tryed, and yes its miles better,

If you go through the trouble to take the entire umbrella fabric off of the frame, why not just toss it in the washing machine?

I bet a 'men' will never go though this pain :) thanks for your hard work and determination

Sweaty mess housewife.......... oh man, i'm gonna watch more of you ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great job!!!!
