If the items are pure white you could use a little common bleach diluted and let them soak in a bucket. Then wash seperate from anything with colour. Remember to wear gloves, and don't leave the bucket where Teufel can lick the bleach water!!

I'm sure there are other remedies, but that's the only one I know of...

For the shirt, it may be too late if you put it in the dryer (or it was exposed to heat), as heat will permanently set the stain. You can try rinsing it again or putting it in a bleach mixture (like 1 part bleach to 5 parts water).

Similar with table--wipe down as much as you can and try to get it really wet to loosen the stain, and then use a bleach spray. Martha Stewart reccommends hydrogen peroxide or an enzyme wash/spray as well.

Hope this helps!

Sorry Im so dorky, but here is the url for marth stewart's stain guide. Im not a big martha fan, but she has some great info on stains, for sure!
