Candle wax on the carpet isn't, strictly speaking, a stain, but it is related. A very good method of removing wax involves putting a paper towel (or coffee filter-type paper) over the spilled wax, and then putting a hot iron over the towel. The heat draws the wax up into the towel, which can then be discarded. The carpet beneath will be left wax-free and clean. This method also works a treat on getting wax out of clothing. Found this...i hope it helps

brown paper bag works great for the ironing trick. Classic. Will work best yeah, for dark colors or varied patterns - because what you can't see that usually remains is a bit of grease. You can easily get off any grease that is left after ironing by rubbing in a bit of borax (powder). Let sit, then wash. Works for my picky, perfectionistic self every time!! :) :)
