    You need a brown paper bag, and a steam iron...most likely plugged into a loooong extention cord.
    Tear open the bag so it becomes a single piece of paper. Place it over the stain. With a hot iron, iron over the bag. The heat melts the crayon, and the bag absorbs it away from the cloth. You may need to do this three or four times with more bags.
    This usually does it, but if it was a black or brown crayon on really light colored upholstery, then you may still be left with a "ghost" image. This can be touched up with a spray on stain remover.
