Cr@p (wedding rings mentioned)

So you know the post below asking for a PIP of your engagement ring?  Yeah, I don't have a pic so I was going to take one.  I went over to the window to get more light and I dropped my rings.  Where you ask, in my candle that I've had burning for a few hours.  Any ideas on getting blue wax off of my rings?  The rings themselves aren't so bad, it's around the setting that's hard.

    Put the rings in a warmed pot and melt the wax?

    I would say either put them in hot water like PP suggested or just go ahead and get as much off as you can and bring them to the jewerly store.  They'll be able to use their stuff to get it off.

    to be safe I would use water. Boil some water and put the rings in a bowl/cup, then pour the water on it.  You can use a toothbrush to clean it if it got in any grooves.

    Thanks.  That helped a lot.  There is still some was deep under the setting, but it's a ton better.

    I always put votive holders in the freezer for about an hour and the wax just flakes off.  Maybe use a dry toothbrush.

    Poor Kristy!

    Oh my, I hope you can get the wax off.  I really don't have any wax removal advise, sorry.
