April Stamp 'N Hop - Anything Goes

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it. Today I am hopping with Stamp 'N Hop Blog Hop, this theme is Anything Goes so I think I have met that theme with my Beeswax Food Wraps! I made some about 18 months ago and always meant to make more but never got around to it. Last week end I was at a friends having a lovely garden visit and I noticed she was using cling film, so I said I would make her some beeswax food wraps. Of course I had to decorate the fabric with some beautiful stamping!  Stamps are not just for paper!

Measurements and Materials

  • I tested the stamping first because I thought it might run once the wax was added but it was fine
  • After stamping all over the square of fabric I placed it on some grease proof paper
  • I scattered beeswax pellets on the cloth
  • I covered with another sheet of grease proof paper
  • Then I ironed on top until all the wax was melted
  • I peeled back the grease proof paper, careful not to touch the cloth as it is very hot ...ask me how I know! 
  • More wax pellets were added to areas where it was not covered
  • I then ironed again
  • This was repeated until all the cloth was covered
  • Once cooled the cloth will stiffen
  • It is not ready to use as a food wrap

Video Tutorial

    1. Thank you Lynn, I bought it from Amazon, I just searched beeswax and loads of options came up. I chose one that suited my budget. First time I made them I had a block that I had to grate, that was a bit messy, these little pellets are easier but more expensive. That is why I tried the block first as it is much cheaper. Hope that helps.
