Oh, I thought this was going to be something kinky.
As far as what to do, I don't think there is anything that can get it out, once it gets into the fibers.

I would say let it dry and then scrape it off, but it's never happened to me so I'm not sure??

Dookie,
I heard you can put paper towel down or a rag and then use an iron. Checked the internet for ya.
1. Remove with heated iron into absorbent paper towel
or napkin.
2. Sponge with a small amount of dry-cleaning solvent.
Blot. (Use small amounts to prevent any possible damage
to sizings, backings or stuffing materials. Do not use
gasoline, lighter fluid, or carbon tetrachloride).
3. Mix one teaspoon of a neutral detergent (a mild
detergent containing no alkalies or bleaches) with a cup
of luke-warm water. Blot.

Some of us have had to do these things....and this was one of them for me.
The paper bag works, just watch the heat of the iron and you will get wax residue on the iron itself. (at least I did, also from a Mantle Dook)
