Wipe those tears away, I have a wonderful tip for those of you who have spilled wax on your carpet. I know we've all done it at one time or another. You blew a candle out just a little to hard or moved a candle before the wax has set up. Whatever the situation, this trick will get the wax OUT!
Supplies
- Iron
- Brown Paper Bag
- Goo Gone (optional)
- White Cotton Cloth (optional)
How- To
This is so easy. It is basically a one step clean-up.
After the iron is warmed up, place your brown paper bag over the wax spill. Then, run the hot iron over the paper bag until you see the residue from the wax on the bag. Move the a clean part of the bag over the spill and continue running the iron over the bag. Repeat this process until no more waxy residue seeps through the paper bag.
If there is any remaining wax, spray a small amount of Goo Gone on the area. Always test a hidden area before spraying onto large area, but the Goo Gone did not affect my brown carpet. Let the Goo Gone sit for 30 seconds then gently rub clean with a white cotton rag.
This works beautifully, both with or without the Goo Gone. Try this trick and let me know how it worked for you!
