"I have ironed my bathroom."*What could possibly be more tempting than a melty candle on a window sill?? Just because it's out of reach, doesn't mean it's safe in my house. In order for things to be truly child retardent, one must first put them very high, then remove all objects that could possibly assist in the attempts to reach said object. This includes stools, chairs, large toys, other children, suction cups, ladders, boxes, rope, wood that could be used as a ramp, any tools that could be used to build something to get the object that must be really cool, otherwise it wouldn't be up so high, right???
The silence that followed the repeated question, "Royal, what exactly are you doing in there?" lead me to believe that it wasn't something he was supposed to be doing. (*see previous paragraph)
Good news, though!! The whole "iron up wax" trick really works! I have ironed clothing, tablecloths, money, things in waxed paper, and now a bathroom. I set my iron to linen and placed a towel over the wax splatters (there were a LOT of them), ironing the area long enough to reheat the wax and wick it up into the towel. Wipe the excess and enjoy your clean floor... and wall... and baseboard... and toilet... and towel bar... and window sill...and heater...
