Candle wax out of clothes?
This sounds stupid but it works. Freeze the clothing and the wax is very easy to scrape off with a sharp knife, if scraping becomes difficult, refreeze the cloth. That is how to get the wax off . If it leaves a grease stain behind , use brown paper , like grocery bags, put a sigle piece top and under the stain , go over with a warm iron [ don't scorch the paper ] and it will absorb the parafin or beeswax or tallow left in the fabric. Do this til the paper is absorbing no more candle grease .

What is the best way to get melted candle wax out of carpeting?
Remove as much wax as possible by hand using a serrated knife to help scrape the wax from the carpet fibers. Then take a brown paper bag and cut a section that is twice the size of the affected carpet area and place over the wax stain. Then take a preheated electric iron set on medium and "iron" over the paper bag piece. The wax in the carpet will melt and be absorbed into the paper. Several tries may be necessary using fresh pieces of brown paper bag to get all of the candle wax out.
How do you get red candle wax out of carpets?
Ouch! Use a bread knife or spoon and scrape away as much of the wax as possible. The more you can physically remove this way, the less risk of permanently staining the carpet. Then place several layers of paper towels over the spill and apply a warm iron to it. The iron will melt the wax and the towels will soak up the melted wax. You will go through a lot of paper towels! Be careful not to let the carpet overheat and allow the iron to melt the fibers.

First break up any pieces that you can remove with a screwdriver leaving just what is actually stuck to the carpet. Next use several paper towels folded and a medium hot iron and place towels over wax and place iron on top of the towels for a few minutes, you will notice the wax melting and being absorbed into the towels. Keep repeating this process until no more wax can be absorbed into the towels. Remember faster is not better, adding more heat will melt the carpet fibers as well as the wax so be patient.
