    Cleaning a Silk Veil???

    Perhaps this was addressed in the past (sorry!), but how does one clean a silk veil? I know I am not the first one to have their silk veil tossed on someone's dinner plate, but that's what happened to mine tonight! My absolute favorite veil on top of someone's dinner! I wiped off whatever it was (salad dressing maybe...?) but now I have this stain on it. Can I wash it? Pretreat it? Spot wash? Anything?

    Oh, Basia! I'm sooo sorry! :( If it helps, I sooo enjoyed dancing with you, Zayna & other Rak Stars; you were lovely! I posted pix on FB:)

    Thanks everyone for your help! I'm going to take a better look at it in daylight to assess the "damage" and, I am much calmer now than last night!

    And Zafirah...thanks! It was a pleasure dancing with you as well and the Rak Stars! And that solo you did was mesmerizing!
