melted crayon in the carpet

guys..is there any way to get a bit of melted crayon (wax) out of carpet. This is in the rear armrest compartment..not in the floor. Please give me some tips on what to use. Thanks!

In the market
In some cases if you take a slightly damp paper town and place over the wax, then take an iron and run that over top of it, most of the wax will melt and wick up into the paper towel. Might be worth a try

Try using wax paper instead of a towel if the towel doesn't work. Make sure the iron is on a very low setting. The crayon should adhere to the wax paper.
