Anyone know how to get wax out of clothing?
get a brown paper bag and a clothing iron. place the brown paper bag over the wax, and put the iron on low to medium heat. iron over the bag and repeat moving to clean bag. the wax soaks into the bag.
^^ Definitely the best way try to scrape as much off as possible first.





Thanks! There's so much knowledge up in the SW.![]()
i used to have candles all ove rthe house, and it never failed it would get wax on the carpet. it works there too![]()




Put it in the freezer, say twenty minutes? Peel off.. wash.
IF those other tips don't work, get paper bags, and a warm iron, sandwich the material between the bags and repeated run the WARM, not scalding hot iron over it. The wax melts, gets absorbed by the paper. Trick is to change the paper frequently![]()

^^^ weird, huh.
Did you get the advice before she disappeared?





Put newspaper on the clothing and iron the clothing. The wax will melt and stick to the most porous object - the newspaper.

I do the iron thing but with paper towel. Works for me!
Yep, a warm iron with kitchen towel on either side works (-:
* By kitchen towel, I mean the absorbant paper stuff, not a tea towel, lol.
^^^ Wow. I was unaware.
