Just a Crafty Individual!

Playing with beeswax. I have just discovered the pleasures of Beeswax! It's wonderful on finished items to give them a luscious smell, feel and vintage appeal. Give it a good sniff and you could swear you had just walked into an Antique shop!

This is my entry for the monthly challenge over at Crafty Individuals, where the theme is pink, brown and cream. My absolute favourite colour combo, hence how quick this was completed!



I even managed to set some tiny beads in the molten wax. Thanks to Jean for a great challenge!




Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog, enjoy your day, Sam xxx

    I really love your creation. Isn't beeswax just so fun? I used it in a Tim Holtz class and was hooked. Also the beads add just enough sparkle.
