Gather Your Materials:
To begin your wax seal journey, ensure you have the following items on hand:
Wax stamp: Choose a wax stamp with a design that suits your style and the occasion.
Wax sticks/Waxbeads: Select sealing wax sticks/waxbeads in your preferred colors.
Clean surface: Prepare a clean and flat workspace to work on.
Choose Your Method:
You can create wax seals using either a glue gun or by melting wax beads with a spoon. Decide on the method that suits your preference and the materials you have available.
Apply the Wax:
Once your wax is ready, it's time to pour and shape it into a seal. Pour the melted wax onto your desired surface, aiming for a pool of wax slightly larger than the size of your wax stamp.
Stamp the Wax:
Retrieve your wax stamp from the ice pack, ensuring it is clean and dry. Press the stamp firmly onto the wax, making sure it is centered and level. Hold the stamp in place for about 5-10 seconds to allow the wax to cool and solidify.
Remove the Stamp:
After the wax has solidified, gently lift the stamp straight up from the wax surface. Avoid any twisting or wiggling motions to maintain a clean and clear impression.
