Wax Seals 101

Next date: Monday, 31 August 2026 | 06:30 PM to 08:00 PM

A tabletop full of assorted colourful wax seals

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 something that you can make yourself, layering up different coloured waxes and different stamps and designs. It’s a very 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 six seals in class.

This workshop will cover:

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!
