My daughter just colored the couch with her crayons. Any ideas as to how to get it out without smearing?

Oxy Clean has gotten out some bad stains on my daughter's clothes before. We've also use the Magic Eraser to get crayon off walls. I just don't know how well it would work on a couch.

Hairspray works for removing crayons

I was going to sugesst the rag with a iron. It does work but start of very low setting on the iron. I have two jr picasos at my house unfortunitly for me it was outdoor craft paint. It won't come out but look at the stories we will be able to share.

I'd suggest OxyClean. Also I've heard the suggestion to put a rag on top of the crayon. Then use a WARM iron to melt the wax and pick it up on the rag. I've never tried it, but it sounds logical. Good luck.

When my sister was a waitress she washed a load of jeans with a green crayon.  It was a mess all over all of her jeans, but she got it out.  It took a lot of scrubbing and a citus orange cleaner.
