My glass-topped end tables have gotten some candlewax spills in the past few
weeks- any advice about how to get these off without scratching the glass?

scrape it off with a credit card.

A razor blade will scratch the glass. Use a credit card. An ice cube
applied to the wax for several minutes prior to scraping will help
make the wax brittle. Follow up with household ammonia and paper
towel.

Hi Katie

Scrape it off with some plastic edged item like a credit card, then
remove the residue with alcohol.
