Sealing Wax Beads
Wax beads are the most flexible way to seal: melt exactly as much as each seal needs, and mix colors in the spoon for marbled effects.
| Shape | Octagonal beads, about 9 mm |
|---|---|
| Bag | 100 beads (about 35 g) or 200 beads, one color |
| Per seal | 2 to 3 beads for a standard seal, 4 to 5 for larger seals, as stated by the supplier |
How to Make a Wax Seal
- Melt sealing wax beads in a melting spoon over a tea light, or warm a wax stick in a mini glue gun.
- Pour the melted wax onto your envelope or card in a coin-sized pool.
- Wait a few seconds, then press the stamp straight down and hold it still for about 10 seconds.
- Lift the stamp gently. Wipe the head clean before the next seal.
Tip: if the wax sticks to the stamp, let the pool cool a little longer before pressing.
