If wax has dripped
on your carpeting, gently scrape away as much as you can
with a plastic spatula. Put a couple of brown paper bags
over the wax and iron the bags with a warm iron. The heat
will transfer the wax from the carpet to the bags.
Depending on the amount of wax, you may need to repeat
this process with additional bags. 
If wax has dripped
on upholstered furniture, the process is a little
different, because the wax won't seep as far into the
fabric. Fill a plastic zipper bag with ice. Hold the ice
against the wax until it's good and hard. Then, use a
credit card to scrape it off. If there are any remaining
traces of wax, layer the area with white paper towels and
iron gently.
