Any Suggestions for Getting Wax Out of Clothes?

Lay a dish towel over the wax, and iron over it with a hot iron. It should lift the wax onto the towel.

I was going to give the paper towel answer, but if you REALLY love them, you can take them to the drycleaner. My burts bees lip balm melted in the car and spilled all over my favorite pants, I thought they were ruined. I took them to the cleaner and they got every bit of it out... just a thought.

Lay an old towel or a piece of foil on the ironing board. Heat up the iron to warm, no steam. Put the sweatpants on the ironing board, then put several layers of paper towels over the spot, and apply the iron. The wax will melt and be absorbed by the towels. Keep moving the towels until the wax is removed.

Launder (using stain remover or dish soap) but do not put in the dryer - let it air dry to see if the stain is gone. If not, you can get a wax removal product from most housewares stores (e.g. Bed Bath & Beyond) or some candle shops. Don't use it on really fine fabrics, but on sweats it should be okay.

Using an iron and paper to absorb the wax will work, but still leaves a trace of wax. I used to do a lot of batik and found dry cleaning is the only way to really get it all out. I personally did as much as I could before taking it to the cleaners.

Stick them in the freezer. The wax should be easy to pluck off when frozen.

Use an iron on low.

Same as the bottom, but I have always heard to use a paper bag.

I've used the freezer idea and the paper towel over the wax with a med. hot iron. Both have worked well for clothing and the iron idea worked well for the carpet too! Good luck.

well you could try putting a paper bag over the spot and using a warm iron....the paper bag will soak up the wax...I know from experience it works on carpet but not sure about clothes.
