I decided to re-wax it, and to make a few more wraps at the same time for a couple of eco-friendly friends.
Last time, I made each wrap individually. This time I layered 4 sheets of new fabric on top of my existing wrap, with grated wax in between. I put parchment paper above and below the stack, and placed it all on a thick pile of newspaper. It all worked successfully, and unlike last time, I had no 'seepage' of wax at the sides. I hung my squares to dry
Then I folded and packaged the squares in pairs ready to be posted. I put a paper explanation band round them.
I think they look quite professional - and my DIY ones cost less than a third of the cost of ones purchased on line.
They look fantastic! A new sideline?
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful! Your friends will be thrilled to get them. I've been interested in these for a while but have not made any - thanks for the good recommendation.
