I haven't tried this yet but heard it lots - crayons are wax...take a paper towel or fabric and place it on the stained area and iron it. The wax will transfer to the paper towel. I wish you luck!

I have used Sol U Mel to get out some of the worst stains. Hard to believe but I even used it to get paint off one of my favorite black dresses. It worked and did not damage the color. It was so incredible. Now I just have to work on the waste to get back into this dress.

Grandma's Stain Remover got red crayon out of my daughter's clothes after it was washed & dried with them. It was like magic! After I had tried several other things, and even after washing & drying the clothes again, this stuff got it out. It might work on upholstery too!

I would try Resolve upholstry cleaner. I believe I have seen it at Wal-Mart.

Try Sol-u-mel. It is a miracle cleaner that gets out EVERYTHING!! I used it to get permanent marker off our couch upholstery. It took crayon off the wall in one swipe!
