Captioning the images, she wrote: "That was a successful attempt at saving trainers."
Explaining how she was able to scrub them up, she added: "I took the laces out and put them in bleach and oxi stain remover with boiling water.
"I sprayed the trainers with Elbow Grease then put them in the sink with scalding water and bleach and scrubbed with a Minky. I then put them in the washing machine.
They look like a brand new pair.
