Sealing wax by JessyAtSea
Sealing wax, or wax seal beads, are tiny balls of wax that can used to make the most beautiful seals imaginable. You can melt the wax beads into sealing wax yourself and use them in combination with one of our wax seal stamps to decorate envelopes, gift wrap, cards and more. Our wax seal beads all melt into a flexible sealing wax, and in the process are available in 60 colours that you can use to come up with infinite combinations.
A new spin on traditional sealing wax
Our sealing wax is a flexible variation of the special wax that is traditionally used to seal important documents and letters. However, our sealing wax is more versatile, because the seals it makes are not fragile, and can be reused endlessly. So you add a lasting and especially personal touch to all the cards, packages, wedding invitations and other gifts you seal.
This is how you use the wax seal beads
Use three wax beads for a 25-millimeter wax seal, and four for a 30-millimeter seal. Choose wax beads of the same color or use different ones to create a blend. Then use a skewer to make a swirl in the wax or mix it all over to make a new color.
To complete the seal, pour the wax where you want it to be placed and gently press the stamp into it. Just 30 seconds and that's that: you've sealed the deal!
Sealing wax for more than just stamps!
Now, we hear you thinking: “You just make seals with sealing wax, right?” And of course, that goes without saying! But did you know that there are many more things you can do with our flexible sealing wax?
After all, with the different colors and the flexible properties of our sealing varnish, you can truly let your creativity run wild. You can create unique designs that perfectly suit practically any (gift) occasion.
So you can seal bottles and jars by dipping the cap or lid into the hot sealing wax. In fact, once the wax has dried, you can easily cut it open. Not only is this a stylish way to present your own homemade treats, but it also creates an airtight seal that keeps your food/drinks fresher for longer.
Still like to stick with a seal, but want to go for that extra touch? Then, fortunately, we also offer a great solution! In fact, you can order a personalised wax stamp from us. Your design, your stamp, and a personalized addition to any gift.
Sealing wax colors: get inspired
Time for a tip from Jessy. Since is possible to mix the different colors of sealing wax to create brand new ones, as we described earlier, you'll never run out of shades to experiment with using our 60 base colors.
Want to lighten a color? Then mix it with our snow white sealing wax.
Do you adore the beach and the sea? Then the combination of midnight blue, sapphire blue and snow white is probably really for you. Make a light swirl and your wax seal will soon have the color of a raging ocean!
