Another tip:
To remove candle wax from the bottom of a container... stick it in the frezzer... it will pop right out... no more digging at it with a fork Got candle wax on your carpet? Did you blow it out and it sprayed on the wall?
A medium heat iron and a paper bag will get it up.. just iron on top of the bag and it will soak up the wax...
Dusty flower arrangements and fake ivy?
Put them in a brown paper sack with 1/4 cup table salt... shake the bag (over the sink)and it removes all the dusty stuff that clings to it....
Thanks again!
