Kick out the plastic wrap!
Carolyn, Rachel and Brianna show a quick and simple way to start switching your home away from disposable, unhealthy plastics and toward healthy reusable products.
A little beeswax, cotton cloth and a few old paintbrushes can save a lot of plastic wrap over the next few years- not to mention saving your family from the toxins leeched into your food from those plastics! Plus... they are way cuter than plastic😉.
Take a few fun minutes with your children to make some reusable beeswax food wrap - it's a great healthy homesteading project.

My grandmother taught me to make covers for daily use to keep things covered but not air tight.. we just crochet a lacy edge around the fabric and attach beads on strings of the crocheted lace that anchor the covers so they won’t slip or blow off. They are good to cover dough as it rises and covers pitchers of tea etc. it’s another cover worth having and they last for decades!

@@maryjohnking5869 ...She took muslin and cut it into whatever size she needed...she made a small rolled hem around the edge and then she would crochet a little lacy shell stitch with a dropping chain stitch and she would add a bead and then chain back up to the edges and do that all around the muslin ...when it was on the bowl or pitcher it had a chandelier type effect it was pretty and very functional...I can't remember a picture as a child without those covers on everything...the beads she used were glass. I think you might be able to get a similar effect with store bought lace and thin ribbon to put the beads on...I don't think it will be as pretty but it should work. I hope I explained it well enough for you to get the Idea.

You mentioned using baking sheets that you might NOT want to reuse for baking but, in the 1800s, bakers waxed their metal baking sheets to make the original non-stick surfaces. They'd just rub a chunk of beeswax over it. I read about it in the Joy of Cooking, my mother's favorite cookbook. It's listed under Cookies, in the beginning part where they explain the tools used for cookies. Now that I've written this, I think I may prefer to wax my sheets instead of buying expensive parchment paper!

Your family is so beautiful and amazing! When I watch your videos, they bring tears to my eyes. I grew up with the stories of the Farm my grandparents had as a young couple. They lost their Farm to the Dust Bowls. They ended up in Colorado. I used to love listening to everything they told me. So when I watch your videos, it's like reliving all those amazing things I heard about! I remember my grandma telling me when she would milk the cow, she would squirt it right into my dad's mouth as a child. They talked about how delicious it was. I miss them everyday! Thank you for bringing all those wonderful memories back to me!

Weird! I've been making waxed cloths for years to wrap tools in to prevent them from rusting but I never thought of using them in the kitchen 🤦‍♂️ I found that a few passes with a rolling pin once the wax is still slightly warm makes the sheet somewhat more flexible. Don't know why, but there you go then...

Those sheets are Air Bake cookie sheets! They were invented by relatives of mine. One day, my aunt was baking cookies and her cookies burned. She turned to her husband who was an engineer and said, "Why don't you invent me something that will prevent my cookies from burning"? So, he took her seriously and did! 😉 The pocket of air prevents the burning on the bottom. You can even put it under a pie tin to prevent the bottom from burning.

Your girls are adorable! You remind me of my mom! Neat idea...I’ll try this. I’ve seen this done with an iron and parchment but you’re right, throwing away parchment is expensive.... plus You could use less wax and rewax the wraps as the wear out that would make them less stiff ...I’ve seen people add a few drops of jojoba oil to the wax pellets, melt them in a bow and brush it on like paint too. I think the oil makes them more tacky so they stick to themselves better. Thank you for demonstrating and thanks for being a cool mom. ☺️

Jane A you can also use a tiny bit of coconut oil to make them melt a bit easier, since coconut oil melts at nearly room temperature. You can also make a great dry skin treatment/chapstick by mixing coconut oil and beeswax-this also works great on pet paws that are dry or cracked (it’s great to put on before a winter walk to avoid getting any of the salt melt on the pawpads-it keeps them nice and soft and dry)

My Little Homestead , hello, I'm a new subscriber and am starting to change my way of living for health, the environment, and a more natural way of life! Just a quick question, I love these wraps and will be making them, but why are the beeswax pellets so white, and the chunk of natural beeswax the honey color?? Why are the pellets so white? Hopefully you will see this comment and be able to answer. Thank you!

Much nicer than the dreaded Saran Wrap.

I have a large square bees wax fabric with a wooden button sewn on one corner with a cotton string tied to the button and leaving a long tail, you can wrap and secure with the string by winding the string around the button

Nice, informative video! I have just learned of this alternative to plastic wrap and am very interested in making some of these for home use. Your daughters are so poised. How lovely that you are preserving these moments with them. Someday, before you know it, your grandchildren will love seeing their mommies or aunties at their ages now. God bless you all.

Similar to making oiled tarps. This is something I'll be trying with my niece when its raining outside and we need an indoor activity.

You don’t need that much beeswax. This is a project that less is more!

I was just thinking that cloth napkins would work great too! Already sewn and lots of great patterns. Would you recommend boiling the cloth first to remove any fabric treatments?

I love how beeswax wrap will stay on anything! When using Saran Wrap, it only stuck to glass! I love using my beeswax wraps over and over again on anything (jars, cups, pitchers, containers, plates, bowls etc.!!!)

This would be great for storing individual pizza slices in the fridge or freezer
