You can try using the iron on brown paper bag method. You simply put a single layer of brown paper over the stain and iron it using a low heat. The heat melts the wax and the paper absorbs it. Change the paper as it becomes saturated with the wax. It takes some time and patience but I used it successfully on a large candle spill. Make sure to chip away as much of the wax as possible before you start and be careful not to burn your rug. You might want to test a hidden spot before you go to work on the stain. Good luck.

How would one get pink candle wax out of brown carpet?

Scrape as much wax off the carpet as possible using a dull knife. Place some paper towels over the remaining pieces. Heat the area over the paper towels. This will melt the wax, making it easier to lift from the carpet. Repeat the process with different paper towels. Use a spot cleaner to remove any left over stains.

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.
