Scrape off as much as possible. Then heat up an iron. Place a clean white cloth on the spot. Iron the spot. Change the position of the cloth as wax comes on it.

Hopefully the wax is still pretty "fresh" and can be easily removed.

• Wax will require scraping off with a dull knife but it may/will scrape off easier if you lay a bag of ice cubes on the spot until the wax "freezes" and then proceed with the warm iron and towel for more removal.

I had this issue at my 21st birthday party. The best way for us was to freeze the wax with ice and chip off.
