INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Materials Needed:

  • Sealing wax beads
  • Wax melting spoon
  • Heat source (candle, tea light, or wax furnace)
  • Wax seal stamp
  • Non-stick surface (parchment paper, silicone mat, or directly on the envelope)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Melt the Wax
  • Place the wax beads into the wax melting spoon. Adjust the quantity based on the desired wax pool size.
  • Hold the spoon over your heat source, keeping it at a safe distance to prevent overheating. Stir gently until the wax becomes fully melted and smooth.
  1. Pour the Wax
  • Carefully pour the melted wax onto your desired surface to form an even wax pool.
  1. Stamp the Wax
  • Immediately press your wax seal stamp into the melted wax. Hold it steady for 10-15 seconds to allow the wax to set.
  1. Remove the Stamp
  • Gently lift the stamp straight up to reveal your wax seal. Let the wax cool completely before handling.
  1. Clean Up
  • Wipe any excess wax from your spoon while it is still warm, using a paper towel. Be cautious, as the spoon may be hot.

Additional Tips:

  • To prevent the stamp from sticking, you can lightly chill it before putting into the wax.
  • Experiment with mixing different wax colours for a marbled effect.
  • Store unused wax beads in a cool, dry place to prevent melting and discolouring.
