Cleaning candle wax off a carpet trick
Anyone ever spill candle wax on the carpet???? Learned the best trick to make it disappear.... use a dull knife to scrape up any excess wax. Put a paper bag over the stain and iron the paper bag on medium heat. You might need to replace the paper bag until it is fully absorbed. VOILA! Totally gone! Useful tip to keep in your housekeeping toolbox... it worked wonders for me tonight!

Haha I wish! I have a 4 1/2 month old so wishful thinking. Any free time I have I am relaxing or sleeping. It was my den rug and the candle wax spilt when I moved the candle to windex off the coffee table. Your version sounds WAY BETTER though...

Yup...awesome trick, you can also use blank computer paper. Learned this after I spilled maroon colored wax on DH's carpet when we 1st started dating

I always used to iron a piece of paper towel - maybe not the best idea but it always worked for me! I'm a clutz lol
