Cleaning Bees Wax

[@HomesteadingOffTheGrid]

That's awesome! I never realized you could do that. We're gonna have to do this with my hive.

[@HeathsHouse]

I save every bit of scrap wax that get knocked off between the frames. Well, some the chickens end up eating, they seem to love it, hahaa. Every little bit adds up.

So interesting!!

[@HeathsHouse]

It's so cool, I am excited to the new adventures the bees bring us.

[@JaniceVineyard-kf6wm]

I have a heart for honey bees and thought about caretaking some.

[@HeathsHouse]

I absolutely love them, took classes previously and at the advice of my friend pushed it off a few years. They do not require a lot of time but they definitely do require time to take care of them properly. I adore watching them work though. If you have any questions, I would be happy to answer them.

That wax is so pretty!! And blueberry pancakes!!! Yummy!!!

[@HeathsHouse]

My prettiest wax ever, granted it was my first too, hahaha. Hopefully I can keep up the standard.

I too never knew you could filter bees wax & make things with it...Thats pretty cool & the wax is very pretty too...Problem with me is I'm deathly allergic to bees, especially honey bees ...Guess I will never be able to do the bee thing, but is very interesting

[@HeathsHouse]

It is a harder substance so you have to thin it out with different oils but you can use it for a lot of projects.

That's nice. Are you going to show how you make the chap stick?

[@HeathsHouse]

I am, I need to order a few more tubes. This amount of wax should get me about 60 tubes of ChapStick.

[@gloriamitchell4596]

can​@@HeathsHouse Wow! You can make that many? You were right, it don't take much to make chapstick
