Stephanie from Long Beach, California recently wrote me and told me:
"... Just thought I'd let you know that Kate's candles can be found at Ross discount stores. The small jar candles can be purchased there for $1.99. Since it is a discount store the scent selection varies a lot. There is no display set up; they can be found in the home department with a number of other candle brands. It is a discount store so some digging/hunting might be required!"
[Some info was omitted by the Candle Lady] Thank you Stephanie for this very helpful information!

Candle wax is resistant to water and any water soluble cleaner. And, hot wax from a candle penetrates deep into the surface. In fact, water tends to spread candle wax stains making the condition even worse. Immediate heat may spread set these stains too. For the best chances of removal, please follow these steps: Therefore, other means, such as "mechanical" or "solvency" must be used to remove the candle wax. Immediate heat, or "wet" solvency treatment may spread and set these stains. For the best chances of removal, please follow these steps:

1. Carefully scrape up (with the edge of a butter knife) or lift off as much solid "wax" as possible. Be careful not to spread the stain with this physical removal.

2. Next, place a tray full of ice cubes into a zipper type freezer bag and rest it over an affected area for several minutes. As the cold makes the wax more brittle, use the butter knife once again to scrape off any further residue. If the area is larger than ice bag, then use the same procedure systematically until entire area is treated.

3. Steps #1 & #2 are the "scraping process" (to be used again later on).

4. After this "cold" method has removed as much of the wax as possible, you should then dry these "warm-hot" methods.

5. First, use your hair dryer (on "HI" setting) to soften the wax. Once again, carefully scrape up (with the edge of a butter knife or piece of cardboard) as much solid "candle wax" matter as possible OR place a very absorbent material, such as a "thick" paper towel or napkin over affect area. Take a 'warm-hot' iron and apply over this covering. Hopefully the wax will either soften so you can repeat step 1 or liquify the wax so it will be absorbed up into material.

6. Pre-Soak stain in isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Allow to stand about 30 minutes. Agitate with a scrub brush. Rinse thoroughly with water. Once satisfied with results, allow surface to completely dry.
