How do you get candle wax off bedsheets?

Answer 2

Candle Wax Sheets

Answer 3

Removing wax spills from clothing, table cloths, cloth napkins:
1. Place item with wax spill in the freezer for an hour or two. Break frozen wax off of fabric.

2. Launder on cold.

3. If a color stain remains, it is best to have the article dry cleaned, with special attention paid to the candle dye stain. If the candle dye stain is very light, you can also try laundering the fabric on a very hot temperature. Laundering fabrics stained with dark dye stains isn't recommended, as the hot water can actually set the stain into the fabric.

Ironing the wax up w/ paper towels works fine for carpet or upholestry but might be too harsh on thinner fabrics like sheets.

Answer 4

Lay a piece of waxed paper over the wax, then cover the wax paper with a towel. With a hot iron go over the towel and when the wax gets warm it will stick to the wax paper..
