You should NEVER leave a two year old alone with a crayon.
So, anyone know how to get crayons marks off of carpeting??

Good luck!
Oh no! Barb,you should see my walls and if my carpet wasn't dark I am positive I would have the same visable crayon evidence. Maybe try putting white paper over the crayon marks and then a hot iron to melt onto the paper? Not sure what that would do,but maybe it would work.
ReplyDeleteBarb, the effectiveness of using a hot iron depends upon what the carpet is made of. I tried to remove candle wax from our basement carpet and now have a permanent burn.
ReplyDeleteCoit says to treat crayon like wax: 1)apply dry cleaning solution and blot. 2) repeat until stain fades. 3) apply dish detergent solution. Blot again. 4)rinse with tap water and blot dry.
It sounds like a lot of work since the drawings on your carpet are not only in one spot. Godd Luck, Mom
