Hello from Alabama, USA. I was watching Natasia from Treasure Books, and she was unboxing a Journal she purchased from you. Inside were a few sheets of waxed paper. I had never seen this before, so I had to come look for myself and low and behold just 5 days ago you demonstrated your process. I have already made my towel covered cardboard, ready to pick out papers. Thank you so much for sharing. I have subscribed and am looking forward to watching more of your videos.

The napkin makes great washi tape. Use a single layer napkin, wax it, then get some double sided tape layer it down in strips first before cutting the napkin in to washi tape.

I watched a woman make her own by laying strips of masking tape what ever width you like laid side by side on a sheet of baking paper, and then she painted and stenciled and stamped the strips. It looked beautiful and original. She said you keep the tapes on the baking paper that way the stickiness lasts on the masking tape if kept that way, and use as required.

So grateful that someone in the comments recommended using the old wax from their wax melts, I usually throw it away, once the smell is kinda gone, & I put a new one in, but now I’ll just use it for this, & save so much $$, such a great idea!

I had to laugh when you said you don't use your iron for clothes. Lol I don't either! Lol Reminds me of when I was buying some large cake pans at the thrift store. Another shopper said "You must do a lot of baking! " I told her I don't bake any more....I use them in my garden for holding potted plants to water them. Lol It amazes me how these papers turned out translucent. So pretty! The butterfly looks great...like a vellum one. And the pink crumpled paper turned out gorgeous. We switched to flameless candles, but thankfully I kept some wax ones...now I'm really glad I did as I'll be trying this too! Thank you for showing us a great way to transform paper.
