Wax seals look great on envelopes, bouquets, and gift wrapping. It gives this historic and classic feels to the final product. These days, using wax seals on invitation cards and other gifting has become a big trend. One can find wax seals that are pre-made in the stores. All they need to do is stick them, to get the royal feel on the gift. But, many people like to indulge themselves in making the seals themselves. Just like how the royal people used to do back in the days. One may think that it is difficult to make wax seals on one's own, and someone needs to be a professional at it. But that is not the case. All you need is a wax stamp with the impression of one's choice and sealing wax.

  • Stamp and wax

The very first step is to prepare all the things that are required. You will require a wax stamp that has the impression of anything that you like. One can find impressions of birds, flowers, grains, or any random things. Impression on the stamp can be chosen based on the occasion and the type of gift prepared.

The second is the wax for sealing. The wax comes in various colors and textures, which you can choose from. Also, for melting the wax, one can use either glue gun or use wax sticks. Or one can choose melting spoons just like the authentic wax sealing process.

  • Prepare

The next step in the process is to prepare the setup to make seals as fast as possible. This step is necessary if one has many wedding invitation envelopes to seal.

The first thing to prepare is the wax stamp. To make sure that the seals are made fast, and they set quickly, it is helpful if the stamp is cold. Take a plastic bag, fill it with ice and some water, and place it on a plate or bowl. Now, take the stamp and place the stamp head on the ice bag to keep it cool.

Also, to avoid any mess, take a plate to keep your glue gun or melting spoon.

  • Melt and pour

Now, it is time to melt the wax. For this, you can choose a melting spoon. This can be quite fun to use if the number of seals to make is less. Take the wax pellets in the spoon, and hold it over a small flame to melt it. However, if there are many seals to make, then using a glue gun is the best option. It is fast and mess-free and also make less wastage. One thing to keep in mind is that wax should not be not too hot or bubbling.

Now that the wax is melted, pour the same on the surface you want the seal to be. Pour enough wax on the place, then take the wax stamp, wipe it and press on the wax straight. Always make sure that the stamp is standing still and not moving around. Otherwise, it will ruin the impression.
