Wash and dry fabric. Iron if needed. I used this linen tablecloth from Target, but any lightweight fabric will work – cotton is most commonly used!

Measure and cut pieces of fabric to serve as your wraps. Any size will do depending on your needs. I like 12”x12” or use a large mixing bowl to trace a circular shape.

On an iron safe surface, place a piece of parchment paper that is at least 2” taller and wider than the cut fabric. Place one of your piece of cut fabric over the parchment paper.

Sprinkle the fabric with beeswax so that the fabric is dotted like sprinkles on a cake. Layer a second piece of parchment paper on top of the fabric.

Begin to iron. Make sure the heat setting is set to ‘no steam’. Use your iron to melt the wax and spread it out across the fabric so that the fabric is completely coated. Peel back the parchment paper paper to check where you may need a few more pieces of wax (if any). Then cover again and melt until all of the fabric is covered. You want a thin, even layer of wax.

After the fabric is completely covered, peel the parchment paper off while it’s still hot. This will keep the fabric from sticking to the paper. Be careful not to burn yourself because it will be hot.

Set the beeswax wrap aside. It will dry quickly!
