Also, they said spraying Coppertone SPF 30 continuous spray on the lines took it away. I hope these help you. Good luck!

OK I was one of them that was "unsympathetic" towards OP. So let me elaborate. These are the people I feel sorry for this morning:

A child in Ethiopia not having enough food to eat.
Single mothers in homeless shelters.
People who have lost a loved one (Elizabeth Edwards's children for example).
People who can't afford health insurance for their kids despite of working their asses off.

There are the people I don't feel sorry for:

People who have more money than sense.

Wow you are great. You must feel so good. Did you actually do anything for those people you feel bad for or just sit here and write posts on a message board.

The only way I'm paying $10,000 for a place to sit is if it has an engine, a transmission, and a CD player.

Yes, I actually do something for THOSE people every week if not every day. So, no, I'm not just sitting on my judgmental ass doing nothing. Also, yes, I am pretty great. Thanks for noticing.

Maybe you could write your favorite quotes on it with the same black sharpie, in no particular order: Shakespeare, Lord of the Rings, Gandhi, Keats, Dickinson, etc...

I think someone who can purchase a 10k sofa (which BTW, in terms of nice high end interior design is not THAT much, especially for leather) drives something worth a heck of a lot more than 10K. I'm guessing you've never stepped foot in Roche-Bobois.

Be sure to let us know when DC has a huge blowout on said sofa. And when DH drips on it after some hot monkey sex.

WTF OP, are you a character on Miami Vice? I can't imagine why anyone other than a pimp would buy a white leather sofa. Your toddler was doing you a FAVOR by ruining it, she was probably embarassed to have her daycare friends over.

You're one of those people who, when someone posts about something that bothers them, says somethign alogn the lines of, "If this is the worst thing that happens to you, you're pretty lucky . . . there are children starving int he world (wait, you said that here too) . . . you don't have real problems" Yeah, people like that are idiots. Whatever. It's an anonymous message board, for cryin' out loud, and she asked for advice, not sympathy.

I don't even trust MYSELF with a white sofa. That said---I am sorry. I know that pit in your stomach feeling.

The day after we moved into our new house (and my BIL had just spent a week painting every single wall)....my 16-month dragged me into the kitchen very excited...and said 'ta-da'..one entire wall was covered in red crayon...he was so damn proud of it and so cut all I could do was laugh. I don't know wth he got the crayon. Luckily- toothpaste and a paper towel took it right off and my OCD, neat-freak DH never had to see it.

Good luck. Hope it comes out.

To the poster who does something for "THOSE" people every day, you must be really busy. However not too busy to post rude comments to OP who simply asked for advice. You should probably get back to helping the children of Ethiopia.

I would contact the store where you bought the sofa. In the mean time I would go out and spend a $100 on a sofa cover for your open house.
