What is the best way to get candle wax out of carpet? I have light tan carpet and dark brown candle wax spilled on the carpet at some point. I discovered it when moving furniture, so I'm not sure how long it has been there. :(

Hi there,

Try covering with heavy gauge brown wrapping paper rough side down and use a hot iron, This will melt the wax and the paper will absorb it. You may have to do it a couple of times.
