How to Remove a Wax Stain
Candles can set a relaxing mood, but dripping wax can also stain your clothes and linens! Don’t worry – you’ve got this.
While you may feel the need to pounce on these stains before they seep into your fabrics –wait for the wax to dry since it’ll be easier to remove when it’s no longer hot.
Using a butter knife, softly scrape off as much wax as you can.
Then, place a plain paper bag on an ironing board. Put the wax stained area on top of the brown paper bag and then place a second bag on top. Be sure to avoid using paper bags that have print on them, because the ink could stain the fabric.
On the lowest non-steam setting, use your iron in a circular motion until the wax melts onto the bag. A dark spot on the bag will indicate when the wax is being absorbed. When you see this, move the bags to a fresh section and repeat until no wax is left.
Wax stains don’t stand a chance — you’ve got this.
