Such a fun technique! I love waxing paper they feel so lovely!! I used this technique for my leaf fussy cuts in the September kit. I cut out the leaves, crinkled and massaged the paper (after I cut them out) to break the fiber and make them more pliable and give them a leaf-like texture. I then waxed them and before the wax cooled I shaped the leaves. After they cooled they hold their shape even when they are pressed inside my journal. For a more rigid leaf that I could use as a charm I just added a bit more wax. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial. 💕
I had a chuckle with scraping the candle. My grandma taught me to peel potatoes and I always peel towards me, to the horror of those around me. Personally, I have more control. I’ll need to give this a try. It’s making the rounds again in the crafting community. Thanks for sharing.
WOW, I love the fact that you experiment with us on camera, what could work vs what couldn't work, that's wat the RUclips is all about, and I love it ❤❤❤❤, keep doing wat you do BEST ❤❤❤
Hi DJ, I was just thinking about what to do with my bee’s wax! This is a great idea, as well as making lip balm. I also love your plantain oil tip. I love how these papers have turned out, they’re just gorgeous. Thanks for another great video. I’m off to collect some more wax from my bee hive. 😂 😀🐨🦘🇦🇺
@@hitherandyonstudio Surprisingly bees are really interesting creatures, despite their small size! I’d love to send you some wax but don’t think I could, due to quarantine issues. 😢
This is sooo nice! It reminds me of something I used to do with the kids .... 1)we made fish and under the sea things and cut them out 2) used crayon shavings 3)Put the "under ocean " paper cut outs on a sheet of wax paper ... then put the crayon shavings on ... then put another piece of wax paper on top... 4) I put a brown paper bag over it ( oh and under it too ) Then ironed it all together.. so when you lifted the brown paper you had a sorta sea through ocean scene . I hope that makes sense but this technique would look nice as a little something to put into this beautiful kit . I'll test it out . Do you have FB? I can post when I do. ❤
I love to wax different paper and sometimes thin textil. But one problem i have with the waxed material and that is how to glue and with what sort of glue?
You could also probably use the zester side of a manual cheese grater to get tiny wax shavings safer, just a thought.
I found a little grater with a little handle possibly at All a Dollar that works fantastic.
my tought as well,save a lot of time and fingers :)
I use a mucro grater. Works wonderfully.
Ive also done this on coffee filters. It comes out nice
Ooooo now I have to try that!!!
Putting oil on paper also makes it translucent, so you don't have to worry about it melting, but the wax feel will be missing.
Thanks I will try that 😊
You can use napkins on book pages with the wax.

More comfortable
Towards me too. Safer for me. I’m so happy you’re here.
I think I'll try this on the Amazon brown packing paper. Thanks DJ
What a great idea. I’m interested in how it’ll turn out.

Oh you’re own beehive!! I’m jelly!! How fun.

True I would not advise it. I have a bunch. I do appreciate the gesture 💕
I really love waxed paper! I just dnt know what to w it
Very n̈ice ❤
You could use scented melts to make the paper smell good. Thanks for sharing! ❤
Great idea! Thank you for watching 😀
Thanks for doing the book pages! I actually really like the fact that you can see through to the “other side” .
Glad you like them!
Great idea, thanks for the reminder! I would love to try this on a book page with text on one side and a sketch-like illustration on the other.
I bet that would be so unique. Great idea!!
Love the look! I do also use coconut oil
Awesome!!
Love this 💝💖 Have you ever tried just rubbing the wax on the paper ?… 🤔 Maybe warming the paper just briefly with the iron first…?
I have not. This is how I’ve always done it. Does it work that way?
@@hitherandyonstudio Not sure 🤔 Was wondering if you knew… 💖
These are so much fun! I actually really liked the book page with the writing on both sides. It made it look like a secret code
I thought it was cool too. I’d make it work
I forgot about this. Thanks for the reminder 😊❤

OMGoodness how fun. Yes there is a FB group. Hither and Yon Create Space. I hope I see you there.
So many options with this method. Thank you. A little hint designate a cheese grater for the candle. ❤
Great tip!! Thank you for sharing!!
I’ve always wanted to learn how to do this type of process!
Neat technique! I'll have to try it 🤔
Thanks, DJ for reminding me about waxing paper.
✨❤️
this is really fun!!! I'm going to try it!!!
Yayy!! It is super fun!!
I watch your videos over and over to learn and create!
Love to hear that Betty. Thank you so much!
Great technique! Thanks so much.
You read my mind, I was going to ask about fabric.
I love to wax different paper and sometimes thin textil. But one problem i have with the waxed material and that is how to glue and with what sort of glue?
I’ve used 3-in-1 glue or sew them
Wow I have never heard of this technique. I will try it for sure. Thank you GG❤
You’re welcome 😊 ha! GG. Love it!!!
This is a very cool technique! I would like to give this a try.
Go for it!
Hallo u can also use baby oil
This is really, really cool 😎 !
Fantastic
Coeld you use an old cheese grater toget the wax off of the candle?
I used an old 4 sided grater on the cheese side and the result was awesome!
Yes! Thats a great odea
@@Hyblakey awesome thank you, going through my draw to pull one outbthsg has been used🤣
Oh wow I use to do this long time. Thank u
Happy reminder
I rub a candle on the hot iron and let it drip onto the paper then iron it over the paper.
Bold
What a great idea and such wonderful results. 😊
Thank you. I hope you try it.
So nice ☺️
Love your videos!
Glad you like them! Thank you for watching. 😊
OMG! I missed this.😐 Watching the replay now. So, sorry.😢
It wasn't a live...just a regular video. Thanks for watching!
Can you grate the candle?
I imagine you could yes.
It's a bit more expensive but easier to use beeswax and melt it right onto iron and onto paper. No need for anything but parchment on the bottom.
I had some scrapbook paper ink bleed as the wax melted.
Oh wow. Thats interesting. What brand of paper did you use?
Has anyone tried colored wax? Curious
I use baby oil, quick and easy.
What's the process for that please.
How does it dry?
I just rub it on with cotton wool
@@Elizabeth-1954 thank you
❤❤❤❤❤❤
😊💕💕
Hello😊
Hello 😊 Hope you enjoy the video!
That’s really cool but I’m guessing you wouldn’t be able to write on it.
You could also probably use the zester side of a manual cheese grater to get tiny wax shavings safer, just a thought.
Great tip!!
