Endless possibilities.Use various tools and give your sealing wax a special and personal touch. For instance, use stickers with letters and both smaller and larger stamps to create interesting patterns.
A colourful expression.Melt several colours together in a spoon over a tealight and create interesting marbled effects.
Tip.If you would like a special shape for your seals, you can stamp on a piece of paper at first. When you are satisfied with the result, you can peel off the dried stamp, and glue it to the invitation with a glue gun.
Dainty effects.You can also add dried flowers and other elements to the seal to create texture and depth. Golden foil flakes are also ideal to add if you would like a beautiful, glittering finish.
Glue as a seal.Even your glue gun can be used as a seal. The result will be slightly opal-coloured and semi-transparent, but with a dried or pressed flower, it can look quite elegant.
