Household Tip: Spilled Candle Wax Clean Up is Easy!

Part of my shop is making candles. I learned early on accidents happen when I am pouring wax or even enjoying my favorite candle! Here is a great tip for cleaning up the mess.

Throw away those nasty chemical cleaners that never do the trick in the first place! When you find your favorite candle has spilled wax onto your carpet there is an easy non abrasive solution then just replacing your carpet and less costly!

You will need:
1 white 100% cotton wash cloth
Iron
Cold Water

Directions:
Pre-heat your iron to a steam setting. Run wash cloth under cold water and ring out thoroughly. Place the cold wash cloth onto the area to be treated. Take the iron and let it set a moment on the wash cloth, press down and watch the magic happen! If done properly the candle wax will lift into the wash cloth leaving your carpet wax free!

Note: Read the care instructions of your carpet to be sure this treatment will not harm it.
