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

Great idea! Thank you for watching 😀

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.

[@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

[@stephaniegee3481]

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 :)

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!

[@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.

[@KendraBailey-d1q]

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

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Ooooo now I have to try that!!!

[@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!!

[@shellynoones8137]

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

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Great tip!! Thank you for sharing!!

Love to hear that Betty. Thank you so much!

[@janeholmes5097]

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

[@Valeriewells1965]

So nice ☺️

[@yvettesobaszek8100]

Wow I have never heard of this technique. I will try it for sure. Thank you GG❤

[@hitherandyonstudio]

You’re welcome 😊 ha! GG. Love it!!!

[@tbrcspirit]

This is a very cool technique! I would like to give this a try.

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Go for it!

[@juliecurtis9517]

This is really, really cool 😎 !

[@AmyKreckman]

What a great idea and such wonderful results. 😊

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Thank you. I hope you try it.

[@1lawn68]

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

[@49lucky]

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

[@hitherandyonstudio]

Happy reminder

[@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.

[@bettywebster7904]

Love your videos!

Glad you like them! Thank you for watching. 😊

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

[@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… 💖

[@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🤣

[@AthenaHeckman]

OMG! I missed this.😐 Watching the replay now. So, sorry.😢

[@hitherandyonstudio]

It wasn't a live...just a regular video. Thanks for watching!

[@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.

[@belindamcgeorge5602]

I use baby oil, quick and easy.

[@1lawn68]

What's the process for that please.

[@pennydouphinett4545]

How does it dry?

[@ElizabethLavallin-54]

I just rub it on with cotton wool

[@1lawn68]

[@amberpennington6010]

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

[@francesmontgomery7451]

Can you grate the candle?

[@hitherandyonstudio]

I imagine you could yes.

[@utpre89]

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

[@janeholmes5097]
