nail polish removal

[zelda-eckleberg.livejournal.com]

This isn't really a carfty question but I need help. I broke two bottles of nail polish on the carpet and I don't know how to get it out. I go the glass up but I am still left with a hard, scratchy, sparkly mess in the middle of my carpet. I am not worried if the carpet gets lightened a little in the cleaning process, since it wasn't great to beign with, but I do want to avoid a huge white or yellow bleach spot right in th middle of the room. Cursed shoe boxes - why can't they hold forty bottles of nailpoils without breaking?
