The Art of Wax Seals with Qing

Although we don't write as many letters these days, it's still easy to appreciate a beautiful wax seal! These stamp-sized artworks are actually something that you can make yourself, layering up different coloured waxes and different stamps and designs. It's quite a relaxing and thoughtful process! In this beginner class you'll be introduced to the art of wax seal-making and you'll be guided through all the steps to create several of your own. Our teacher adds adhesive backs to her seals so that she can attach them to gift cards, photo albums or incorporate them into scrap-booking projects without melting the wax. All materials provided to make 6 seals in class. What will we cover? In this hands-on workshop you will learn: • How to use the different tools and different waxes • How to melt wax, mix colours, and the different melt times • How to create and layer your design with stamps and colours • Create your own wax seals!
