I have decorative candles that have collected dust. I dont want to scrape at them, but simple wiping just makes the dust spead and makes a gooey type mess. What to do?

The best way I've found is to rub them gently with an old pair of pantyhose. It removes the dust, and shines them back up.

A quick an easy way to clean your decorative candles is to wipe them down with a baby wipe. My kids are grown up now but I still keep baby wipes around for little things like this.

Just dust them with an old pair of panty hose. This works great. Great way to shine them up as well. I have dusted my candles this way for years.

Try using a clean soft paintbrush(unused of course)the size of a glossing brush should do.Just brush away the dust.

Hairdryer on the lowest setting possible. The airflow will remove the dust and the lowest setting will prevent the candle(s) from melting.

You can gently rub the candle with a damp cloth.

I run mine under the faucet and this usually works.

you can wash them in soap and water... add a little vinegar to the rinse water and they will clean up like new....
