how to make beeswax wraps.

By Katelyn.Mand Meka.W

Do you know that every day you use glad wrap, do you know how to fix it. Will we do,
use beeswax wraps. If you have square beeswax wraps you can put it on a circle thing too
because you can put a rubber band around the beeswax wraps.

To make beeswax wraps you need:

1. Fabric any that you like.
2. Special scissors, so the fabric won’t get all fluffy on the side of the fabric
3. You need to get the beeswax.
4. You can choose the shape that you like it can be a circle or square.
5. An iron

Method:

Dry and watch the fabric then iron the fabric.

Cut the fabric with the special scissors into the shape that you like.  

Dip the shape of your fabric in and let the external wax drip off then lay them on a tray.

Bake in a low oven for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from the oven and when it is cool enough to pick up hold it by the very edges then gently
flap the entry flap the want all the wax is probably room Asperger.

Lay the beeswax wraps to start the drying process for an hour.

Care instructions:

The beeswax wraps can handle a light scrub with a gentle dishcloth or sponge. Hand Wash your
beeswax with cold water and alcohol-free soap. Put a bit of cold water in your sink and add soap. Don’t
let it soak for a period of time. Dry your freshly washed wrap with a towel for immediate use or place
over a dish rack.

To wash the beeswax wrap you wipe the food what was on it first,  then wash the wrap with cold water
and dry it with a cloth gently.

Enjoy making beeswax wraps
