Something a little similar happened to me 38 years ago.
We had just built a new house and hadn't lived in it but a couple of months. Our son was only 2 years old and playing in his carpeted bedroom so I was in there supervising. Well, I decided to paint my toenails with red polish while watching him.
I bet you know what happened next...yep...I spilled the polish on the carpet!
Luckily, I have a very laid back and understanding husband, too, who just said..."s**t happens". We used the remnants the builder left us to repair my blunder. We pulled the carpet up, cut out the ruined part, put in a new piece and I sewed it all together on the back side. Once laid back down, no one ever knew about the red nail polish accident. WHEW!
