wax on carpet!

[Kayelle]

Anyone know how to get it out? I'm sure Kim and aggie did something with an iron , but we are renting so need to know what works before I melt the carpet lol

I THINK you put some brown paper over the wax and then a tea towel over the paper and then iron away- this should make the wax stick to the paper instead of the carpet.

But maybe google it because It was so long ago I did it I can't quite remember

Brown paper!!
Fold some brown paper over and place on wax, place iron on low heat over it and the brown paper should absorb the wax

Lovely thank you does the paper need to be a certain side down? One is a tiny bit smoother

Hmmm I don't really know ...... Guessing put the "rougher" side down...I think!

It worked!
Apart from the bit where I got a lil carried away and forgot it was on high and carpet is a lil rough in a small patch Haha! But on low it works
