To ask how you get wax crayon off a wall

[Flappypants]

Toddler strikes. As the title says really...it's a paper-lined painted wall. Wax crayon. Enthusiastic DD came up to me and said "I'm doing drawing mummy". Mummy says "lovely darking let's have a look, then. Oh. "

Help!! Nail varnish remover? White wine vinegar? No point painting over I guess. Area is quite large and noticeable.

Apparently a hairdryer

Paper towel over drawing and iron oven the towel.

Magic eraser!

Hairdryer

^over not oven

WD40. It does work!

I would try melting with a hair dryer and dabbing off with kitchen roll

Manic eraser

Baking soda

I think Magic Eraser will leave scrapes on the wall. I'd try the heat approach first.

Wd40 a friends toddler used a crayon to colour her cream carpet, she tried everything because she didn’t want to risk wd40 on a cream carpet. Used it as a last resort and it came straight out.

It's her wall now, draw a frame around it and gush at your little artist.

Baby wipes have worked for me in past

Yep baby wipes here too!

Spray furniture polish. Melts straight off (or at least it did 10 or so years ago when my own toddler was doing it). Won't stink like WD40 either.

Sandpaper it
Paint it
Clear varnish it

LOVING the frame idea. It's at toddler height obviously so she can appreciate her own creations 🤣

Sounds disgusting, but mayonnaise actually works quite well. Smoosh it on, wait a few minutes and the crayon mostly wipes off.
Okay, you then have to wash your walls with soapy water to get rid of the mayonnaise...

Might try some of the other suggestions first next time!

The frame will just encourage more "art", only do this if you are embracing it and will decorate again in a few years!

There's currently biro on my wallpaper but the decorator is coming next week...

You paint over it. As I discovered today.

Magic eraser!

Wd40 worked for me on a painted wooden wardrobe!!

Furniture polish has worked here too but it leaves a bit of a shine on the wall.
