         Method 1: Using Baking Soda and Vinegar 
  -  Create a paste by mixing two parts baking soda with one part white vinegar in a bowl. 
-  Dip an old toothbrush or rag into the paste, then gently scrub the paste onto the stain. 
-  Stay scrubbing until the stain has begun to fade, then rinse with cool water. 
-  Once all paste has been removed, lay the canvas item flat on a tarp or other waterproof surface, and let dry for about an hour. 
 Method 2: Washing with Dish Soap and Water 
  -  Mix one part laundry detergent with five parts cold water in a bowl. 
-  Dip an old toothbrush or cloth into the solution, then gently scrub the solution onto the stain. 
-  Continue scrubbing until the stain has begun to fade, then rinse with cool water. 
-  Once the cleaning solution has been removed, lay the canvas item flat on a tarp or other waterproof surface, and let dry for about an hour. 
 Tips 
  -  If the stain persists after following either of the above methods, try using a bit of rubbing alcohol. 
-  Be sure to check label of your fabric for special cleaning instructions before attempting to clean it. 
-  Prevent future stains by thoroughly rinsing any items with toothpaste residue before putting in the laundry.
