    If you accidentally get candle wax on your carpet,heres a method that has worked for me several times in the past. The first thing that you want to do is:
    1)Let the candle wax dry.

    2)After the candle wax is dry, get you a DAMP piece of terri cloth (old wash cloth).

  3. Step 3

    3)Lay the dampened terri cloth over the dry candle wax.

  4. Step 4

    4)Get your house hold IRON and put ti on Medium High Heat, and start rubbing your hot Iron over the damp terri cloth rag.

  5. Step 5

    5)After only 1-or-2 times, pick up your cloth and the candle wax will be stuck to your damp cloth.

  6. Step 6

    6)Your IRON has to be hot enough to remelt the candle wax and get soft enough to adhere itself to the dampened terri cloth rag.

  7. Step 7

    7)You may have to do it 2 to 3 times depending on how big your candle wax spill is.

  8. Step 8

    8)I hope it comes in as handy for you as it has for me.The main thing is that I feel better because I could help out a friend.I have more HINTS and TIPS that may help you.Thanks and Good Luck,Jacksonly (Rex)
