What You Need:

Steps:

1. Cut the cotton fabric into desired sizes. Ensure the edges are clean (you can use pinking shears to prevent fraying).

2. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a flat surface and place the fabric on top.

3. Sprinkle an even layer of beeswax pellets over the fabric.

4. Cover with another sheet of parchment paper.

5. Use an iron on medium heat to melt the wax. Slowly move the iron to distribute the wax evenly.

6. Once melted, peel off the top parchment paper and let the wrap cool.

7. For oven method: Preheat to 200°F. Place fabric on a lined baking sheet, sprinkle beeswax, and heat for 5 minutes. Use a brush to distribute melted wax.
