DIY bee's wax wrapping
The recipe:
- Bee's Wax
- Jojoba Oil
- Paint Brush
- 100 percent Cotton Sheet Parchment Paper
Directions:
- Line a tray with parchment paper and place your cotton sheet on top.
- Crumble bee's wax over the cotton sheet and pour the oil over the bee's wax. Cover with another sheet of parchment to avoid burning.
- Cook in an oven at medium temperature until you see the bits melt.
- Remove from oven and use the brush over the parchment to spread it out and make an even layer. If it hardens too soon cook a little more to melt.
- Let the layer cool completely before removing off the cotton sheet. Try different patterns for very interesting wrapping covers!
