The wax seals you made are amazing!! I want to try this so bad!
Can I ask what kind of clay you used and how you got the wax not to stick to it? ๐๐๐ป๐๐ป
Thank you! I just used the normal sculpey clay (the type you have to bake for it to harden up) that I had on hand, though there may be something actually better for it (probably clay is not the ideal material for wax seals anyway lol). To make the wax not stick, I took a small paintbrush and dabbed a thin layer of olive oil onto the seal (making sure to get into all the crevices of detail) every time before I pressed it into wax. I'm not sure how sustainable this is long term (if the oil on the clay would eventually degrade it or make it soft again or etc), but it seemingly works for just using them once or twice.
