Use a brown or white paper bag iron over bag as to melt the wax onto the bag. May take several passes.. Use boiling water to pour thru the back of fabric under the wax to remove the balance of wax, of course over a sink. Pretreat any stain how you normally do and wash.
Hello Charlotte!
I have done this more than once, and it is so aggravating having washed and dried the article of clothing only to find the evidence of the candle wax. Here are some information sites for you. I wish you the best.

try ironing it with a terry cloth on top of the wax. The wax will melt with the heat of the iron and the terry cloth will soak up the wax. That has worked for me when I have spilled candle wax on my carpet.
Take a brown paper bag and a hot iron iron your item with the bag under it keep moving the bag it will pick up the wax
Once you get most of the wax out alcohol might help with stain removal.
Hi Charlotte, You might try spraying it with Totally Awesome Cleaner without bleach. You get it at the dollar store. Spray it on, let it sit for a little bit, maybe 30 seconds, and then sponge it off.
