Carpet / Candle Wax tip

The power went out last night so I rushed to gather every candle in the house. This is but a small fraction of the candles we had lit last night. The problem was that I may have had too many on a plate and by the time the lights were back on wax had dripped onto the carpet :-O! Just wanted to spread a tip that worked for me. Scrap off as much off the carpet as you can. Once this is done place a brown paper bag over the spill and then gently iron the spot. You will see the wax begin absorbing into the bag within a minute. Continue until all the wax is absorbed.
