How do i remove candle wax from my pillowcase?

Answer 1

Paper towels and warm iron.  (You could also use an old rag that you don't mind pitching.)

Place a paper towel under the wax spot and on top of the wax spot, place the warm iron on top. It will begin to melt the wax and the melted wax will seep into the paper towel. You will want to move the paper towel around a bit so that the wax is melting into clean sections on the paper towels.  You may want to scrape off as much wax as you can prior to using the iron.

I have used this method several times and it has always worked for me. You just want to be careful not to get your iron hotter than the fabric will tolerate.

Good luck!

Answer 2

use an iron on low heat - iron the opposite of the pillow case where the wax is and iron it down on to a paper bag or paper ... it will come straight off

Answer 3

Turn the pillow inside out, and place a paperbag or lots of newspaper inside. Use an iron on low heat and go over the wax. The wax should get soaked up by the paperbag/newspaper.

Check on the paperbag/newspaper often, if it's waxy, change the bag/paper and keep doing this until the candle wax gets out.
