Crayon on the walls!!!!!

[lisa85]

please help me my little monster has just drawn a beautiful rainbow on my living room walls, any ideas how to clean crayon without damaging the wallpaper before the landlord sees it in a few days?

Aww, bless the little darling!

Try Flash Eraser pads. They're not easy to come by, but I saw some in my local Aldi the other day and bought all they had. Absolute life saver!

try jif on a sponge with a tiny bit of water. It worked on a wooden cupboard

ooh baby wipes actually work a treat well they did for me when my little darlings were going thru their vandalism artistic phase
try not to rub at it too hard tho as it may fade the paper

I've seen "rub it off with white bread" suggested, but never tried it.

Some spray furniture polish. I keep a can of 'value' polish for this very reason. Leave it of for a few seconds and wipe away - should be gone without much trouble especially if you have silk rather than matt emulsion on your walls. Works great on gloss too. Baby wipes will work with a bit of elbow-grease but there's very little effort this way - I speak from experience !

That'll teach me not to read the OP properly first! Don't know how well it'd work on wallpaper. Try a bit on a hidden part first.

the polish worked beautifully thanks, although until he realized what i was doing hubby thought i was bonkers!

My son did the same thing. In desperation I used blue-tak to wipe over the crayon, it cut a lot of the grease. I didn't have to do much else after that because it was an older type of wall paper, and speckled, so the marks blended in well . What about eucalyptus oil? I've seen a product here in Australia, 'Yuk off', supposed to remove just about anything. Products you use would depend on the type of wallpaper, whether it's a vinyl, flock etc. It's probably a bit late now, but you could always do a google search for suggestions
