Sealing Wax and Wax Seal Stamps
We have a beautiful selection of wedding sealing wax and stamps that can be used to make wax seals for wedding invitations. For inspiration, take a look at our blog.
What are Wax Seals Used For?
Wax seals are used for a variety of things including sealing wedding invitations, sealing letters and sealing essential documents.
Wax seals provide a unique, elegant way to seal essential letters and documents. They also add an extra layer of security because it's difficult to forge a wax seal. When the receiver breaks the seal they know they're the first and only one to have opened it.
It's more common now for wax seals to be used as decorative items for packaging, stationery such as invitations, to send a letter and to decorate gifts.
Types of Sealing Wax for Wax Seals
There are many different types of sealing wax that can be used for wedding invitations and sealing envelopes. Some of the most popular types of sealing wax include beeswax, carnauba wax, and resin-based waxes. You can use standard candle wax, but you may find it difficult to get a good seal, and it won't stick to the paper so well.
Our sealing wax can quickly and easily be melted using a glue gun. Our glue gun sealing wax is available in various colours, so you can choose the right colour to match your invitations.
Self Adhesive Wax Seals
You can make the wax seals directly on the envelope or paper or make your wax seals on silicone or a baking sheet, let them cool and apply them later by using glue. By attaching an adhesive disc to the back you can create self-adhesive adhesive wax seals to use at a later date.
The main benefit of making the wax seals on a silicone sheet is that any you feel are not perfect can be remelted and reused.
Wax Seals Stamps
When sealing your invitations, there's no better way to do it than with wax seals. Our selection of stamps includes a variety of designs that are perfect for adding a personal touch to your invitations.
Our wax seal stamps are made from high-quality materials, so you can be sure they'll make a lasting impression.
Whether you're looking for a simple design or something more elaborate, we have a wax seal stamp that's perfect for you. There are many different types of design that can be used for making wax seals. Some of the most popular designs include text, monograms, initials and logos.
Text designs can be used to make simple, elegant wax seals. Monograms can be used to create a more personal seal, and logos can be used for corporate, marketing or branding wax seals for a business. They're ideal for Etsy sellers or a business that sells a select range of handmade items and gifts.
Sealing Wax Shades
Shopping for wax seals can be overwhelming as there are many different colours of sealing wax that can be used for wedding invitations. Some of the most popular include white, ivory, cream, black, red, pink, blue, and green.
As each batch is handmade and coloured, there will also be shade variations, so bear this in mind when shopping or placing your order.
How to Make Wax Seals
Making your wax seals is easy with our sealing wax. All you need is a glue gun and some patience.
To get started, melt the sealing wax in your glue gun. Once it's melted, carefully apply it to your letters, envelopes or invitations. Then, press the stamp into the wax on your paper or envelope. Hold the stamp in place for a few seconds to allow the wax to cool and set.
Once the wax has cooled, your seal is complete!
Making wax seals is a great way to add a personal touch to your wedding invitations. It's easy to create beautiful, custom seals that will make your invitations stand out.
Melting the sealing wax is very therapeutic, and the wax seal stamp can be used over and over, so even after the big day, you can create beautiful stationery or vintage seals for wedding cards and gifts.
If you're interested in making your own wax seals, we have a few blog posts that can help you get started. Browse or search our online store to order and don't hesitate to get in touch if you need advice, don't understand or just need more information on delivery details.
