You could also probably use the zester side of a manual cheese grater to get tiny wax shavings safer, just a thought.

[@tarjteachr]

I found a little grater with a little handle possibly at All a Dollar that works fantastic.

[@margarethhartmann1176]

my tought as well,save a lot of time and fingers :)

[@nadyneingrassia1479]

I use a mucro grater. Works wonderfully.

[@KendraBailey-d1q]

Ive also done this on coffee filters. It comes out nice

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Ooooo now I have to try that!!!

[@christinesanchez4801]

Love the look! I do also use coconut oil

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Awesome!!

[@KateColors]

Very n̈ice ❤

[@serenityjewel]

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.

[@sharronj7900]

Thanks I will try that 😊

[@Dawn-fz5cu]

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. 💕

[@hitherandyonstudio]

What a lovely idea!! I bet they came out beautiful. Thank you for the tip!

[@beccahogue917]

You can use napkins on book pages with the wax.

[@robinsutton4952]

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.

[@hitherandyonstudio]

More comfortable Towards me too. Safer for me. I’m so happy you’re here.

[@lindamarshall8279]

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]

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

[@lindamarshall8279]

@@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. 😢

[@hitherandyonstudio]

True I would not advise it. I have a bunch. I do appreciate the gesture 💕

[@pjaneheil]

WOW, I love the fact that you experiment with us on camera, what could work vs what couldn't work, that's wat the KZbin is all about, and I love it ❤❤❤❤, keep doing wat you do BEST ❤❤❤

Thank you. I make many mistakes and I hope seeing them helps you avoid them!

I really love waxed paper! I just dnt know what to w it

[@shabbykat273]

You could use scented melts to make the paper smell good. Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Great idea! Thank you for watching 😀

[@carpenc1]

Thanks for doing the book pages! I actually really like the fact that you can see through to the “other side” .

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Glad you like them!

[@packofblacksheep6602]

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.

[@hitherandyonstudio]

I bet that would be so unique. Great idea!!

[@pennydouphinett4545]

I think I'll try this on the Amazon brown packing paper. Thanks DJ

[@hitherandyonstudio]

What a great idea. I’m interested in how it’ll turn out.

[@ThumbprintCreationsbyKerry]

I forgot about this. Thanks for the reminder 😊❤

[@conneeboulmay3431]

Fantastic

[@sarahcott745]

Neat technique! I'll have to try it 🤔

[@AmethystRaven342]

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

[@hitherandyonstudio]

I thought it was cool too. I’d make it work

[@carolhedberg2341]

this is really fun!!! I'm going to try it!!!

So many options with this method. Thank you. A little hint designate a cheese grater for the candle. ❤

I’ve always wanted to learn how to do this type of process!

[@49lucky]

Oh wow I use to do this long time. Thank u

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Happy reminder

[@aplaceforgratitude-kindness]

Love this 💝💖 Have you ever tried just rubbing the wax on the paper ?… 🤔 Maybe warming the paper just briefly with the iron first…?

[@hitherandyonstudio]

I have not. This is how I’ve always done it. Does it work that way?

[@aplaceforgratitude-kindness]

@@hitherandyonstudio Not sure 🤔 Was wondering if you knew… 💖

[@maureenconroy6160]

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. ❤

[@hitherandyonstudio]

OMGoodness how fun. Yes there is a FB group. Hither and Yon Create Space. I hope I see you there.

You read my mind, I was going to ask about fabric.

I rub a candle on the hot iron and let it drip onto the paper then iron it over the paper.

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Bold

[@1lawn68]

Coeld you use an old cheese grater toget the wax off of the candle?

[@Hyblakey]

I used an old 4 sided grater on the cheese side and the result was awesome!

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Yes! Thats a great odea

[@1lawn68]

@@Hyblakey awesome thank you, going through my draw to pull one outbthsg has been used🤣

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?

[@hitherandyonstudio]

I’ve used 3-in-1 glue or sew them

[@belindamcgeorge5602]

I use baby oil, quick and easy.

[@1lawn68]

What's the process for that please.

How does it dry?

[@Elizabeth-1954]

I just rub it on with cotton wool

Can you grate the candle?

I imagine you could yes.

Hello😊

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Hello 😊 Hope you enjoy the video!

[@junkjournalfriday]

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.

[@amberpennington6010]

I had some scrapbook paper ink bleed as the wax melted.

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Oh wow. Thats interesting. What brand of paper did you use?

[@rebeccabowman2204]

Has anyone tried colored wax? Curious

[@debbiebaker4515]

That’s really cool but I’m guessing you wouldn’t be able to write on it.
