Sealing Wax, Paxcoo 312pcs Sealing Wax Kit with Warmer, Spoon for Stamp Letter Seal

Such a fun extra thing you can do to add a personal touch to any card. It’s fun and you can get creative with adding ribbons. The “wax” is actually a type of hot glue that is gold in color. It is durable for mailing looks great. The spoon holder and spoon are very heavy and high quality.The only real negative thing I can say, is the lack of thorough instructions. There are instructions with photos, but they leave out a lot of details. Here are a couple of tips that will help you be more successful:1. Lightly coat the stamp with a little Vaseline before you use it each time.2. Have a paper towel or tissue ready to wipe the edge of the spoon on after pouring. This is so that you don’t make a mess of the holder when you put it back.3. If you don’t let the melted wax cool a bit before you apply it to the envelope it will bubble up. I find it most effective to let it cool a little, and then right before pouring heat the spoon a bit first. This will help produce a cleaner pour without bubbling.4. Take a sharpie and mark the underside of the stamp so that you will know what is straight Wall stamping.

Easy to use!

I've been into pen palling my whole life, and got into using wax seals a few years ago thanks to a friend gifting some Harry Potter World Florida souvenirs.Over the past couple years, I've hated using a lighter to melt all the wax because it just wastes lighters, so I decided to finally go for a melt-in-spoon option. I found this product after much research on Amazon -- it was honestly the best value I could find. You get every single thing you need, including 300 beads! If you were to buy the spoon and wooden component separately, it's about $11 by itself, and you can't find 300 wax beads for $6 anywhere.I received it one-day later after purchasing, and I couldn't believe how much well it works. The wax beads are adorable. The metal part of the wood was warmer was all scratched, and honestly the packaging was pretty bad, but everything is in good enough condition that I wanted to keep it. I put 3 beads in the spoon and waited for it to melt. Flawless. I don't know why others have complained about the wood burning.... if you put the flame directly under the spoon, there is no reason for the flame to get the wood parts.Melting was fast and clean. I just love the quality of this set so much and can't recommend it enough!

Mine came completely fine, although other reviewer's complaints about their stuff being damaged should be attributed to shipping and not the product itself. Also, if your stove is catching fire, to be honest you need to learn to trim the wick of your candles. A long wick will burn sooty and also BOIL your wax, which you DO NOT WANT to do for wax.The spoon balances well in the little stove, even without wax beads to weigh it down it stays where it needs to be. With a shortened wick on your tealight candles, it melts quickly and the spoon is a large size, so you can easily melt enough wax for some larger seals that you may have.The wax beads that come with it are very nice and the whole package is at a great value. The tealight candles are very cheap and I don't care for them, but they do the job.

I used 4 wax beads in order to get the perfect stamp. It's a lovely colour and quality. Easy to use. I did have to prop the tea light in order for it to be closer to the spoon for the wax to melt properly though

If you are new to wax seals, this is a solid kit. My only regret is ordering it in copper rather than brass because the brass set looks as if it were better quality.But the copper melts the wax very quickly. I lit my tealight candle, popped the base part over it, dropped three wax beads into the spoon, and laid the spoon into the hole over the lit tealight. I kept tipping the spoon back and forth because the wax started to melt almost instantly. I kept the melting wax moving until the three wax beads were completely melted -- about 2-3 minutes. Then I lifted the spoon and carefully poured the hot wax into a circle onto the back flap of the sealed envelope. As soon as there seemed to be enough wax for my stamp, I carefully pressed the stamp into the wax, held it there for 10-15 seconds, and then carefully lifted it off. I had stamped the image a little crookedly, but the wax melting and pouring couldn't have been easier or quicker. I quickly wiped the remainder of the wax from the spoon so that it didn't harden. And then I just let the parts cool off before I put them away. The family crest looked amazing!!

This was a well packaged kit and very fun to use on old-fashioned stationary
