I have made hundreds of these and I have found the easiest way is to put the parchment paper on your cookie sheet and lay the fabric on top. Melt beeswax, pine rosin and jojoba oil and paint it on your fabric. Place it in the oven on speedbake at 170 degrees for just a few minutes. I have a paintbrush I keep on the cookie tray in the oven (to keep the bristles flexible) and use it to even out the wax. Put it back in the oven for a minute and they are perfect. If there is too much wax I just throw another piece of fabric on top to absorb it and make another one.

Use a sponge paint roller to easily apply the wax

Very clever to use aluminum foil over your iron even with parchment paper I've experienced wax still getting all my iron so thanks for the tip❤

Thanks for reducing plastic an polythene. World need people like you

Thank you..I have watched a couple videos prior before I found yours.. most all said to wash fabric before ,then used jojoba oil, pine resin and the beeswax.. take a piece of parchment paper, put the fabric on top, sprinkle x amount of the beeswax, pine resin, then dot the oil..put another piece of parchment paper over top and rub with a warm iron..I always like to watch several videos first so not to make so many mistakes wasting the products or messing up on making a salve, body products etc..I ordered the ingredients should be here next week and will be making my own..

This is awesome! It’s so useful that you shared your process to get to the final right way to do it so we can see what works and what doesn’t. Thanks so much!

This is good alternative for people who like to wrap their food with aluminium foil or plastic wrap. I still prefer using a clear container with lid. Good tutorial. Thank you.

Thank you so much for showing what worked and what did not work. This was the best tutorial. 😍

Great job! Thank you so much for showing the not so good parts! Saved me a little trial and error! I really appreciate that! I can't wait to try your style!!

This is a fun crafting project for a Saturday afternoon. I'd start out with unbleached, heavier muslin made from organic cotton just to stay on the safe side, since this will likely have direct contact with food at some point. Fabric dyes aren't commonly from nontoxic sources and will leach out and into foods. This happens with microwavable plastic frozen food trays when heated.

I have no word to say what a phenomenal video! Every part of this was awesome! Thank you so very much!

I love making these, I use pinking shears around the edge so it doesnt unravel. Great job, these are so fun

Thanks for the tutorial!

Thank you for the review and going through the mistakes so we can avoid them! God bless!

Ooo thank you for doing this! I cant wait to make my own!

Followed your instructions and my wraps came out perfect!! The only difference is that i used a silicone brush and the wax was so much easier to apply to the fabric than using a regular brush and on top of that, the wax did not get attached to the silicone brush and cleaning was super easy.

Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺, thanks so much for sharing your ideas. Can’t wait to make mine as well .

The best video ever. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!

I’m absolutely doing this

thanks for the great video. I would use a medium paint roller, you can do it better with that; apply evenly. Aluminum foil only as a base. Carefully peel off and hang to dry.

What are the proportions of bees wax to pine rosin that you used?

I just dipped the fabric in melted beeswax, worked just as well

Great job 🎉 what i did was I placed the fabric over parchment paper and paint with wax and I lay another fabric on top of first one and put a second parchment paper. Than I ironed it. While it was still warm just separate fabrics. In one tour you will get two wrap.

Thanks for the informative video and the links to the products you used. I see the was a year ago..any changes? Going to try some bread bags.

Thank you, do you think I could substitute the jojoba for rose hip seed oil?

Cool thanks

I'm doing this ❤️

If someone can, Pleaseeee put measurements, I will be so thankful💕

@The Old Country Porch • My iron has multiple fabric settings. Can you suggest which fabric = "warm?" Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for the very detailed tutorial! What kind of fabric did you use? How picky one needs to get with the choice of fabric?

I.will.try this.

Wow, I really liked your method! But did you use the iron distribute it evenly? I was going to do the same thing, but I’m thinking I should use a paint roller to spread it out evenly and skip the ironing part but i’m not sure what do you think?

i'm going to make these with my preschool children!!

Fabulous video... and concept! I'm wondering how long they last? Are you still using the ones that you made in this video?

Good video, how did you melt the wax to iron onto the fabric?

Thanks for your tutorial! I'd like to make some but wondered if the wraps leave a waxy residue on the bowl or dish. Also, have you ever used the wraps on produce, like lettuce or cabbage, to store in your refrigerator? Thanks for experimenting to find a perfect way of making the wraps!

Thank you for this demo. What's the other product that's not beeswax and how can I find it?

I used a double boiler set up to melt the wax. rosin and added some jojoba oil. The rosin got sticky and lumping and took hours to melt(not exaggerating !). Then I used an iron because the wax mixture hardened quickly. Getting it to the edges was difficult and the rosin separated from the wax as it cooled. Really a mess and it seemed to take a huge amount of wax to get a good coating. I'm going to try heating in a microwave quickly and pour it on using the iron to spread it out. Does that sound like it will work better?

Put the cloth on a hot plate ( like the one to make pancakes) and roll on the wax

Thanks for the tutorial! Was wondering if I wrap half an onion with beeswax wrap and put it in the fridge, will the smell of the onion seep out to the fridge?

Thank you for taking the time to share this! What kind of fabric did you use?

Quick question... Never used Beeswax wraps before... DIY or store bought. So how long do they last?

How do you wash this / care for it once you make it? Like it has to get dirty

Hello, I am from Jordan and I need to work. Please tell me what tools are needed to start this project

hi. can i just use gum rosin instead of pine rosin?

So how many grams did you add of bees wax and rosin?

Great video. I don't know if this was asked before, but why were you using pine rosin?

Very interesting. Just a question. Since the wax as to be softened by squeeze it in the hands, don't you transfer the bacteria from the hands on to the foil and then to the food?

Hi I am so happy I just found your channel. I have been trying to make the wraps but they're not sticking, I have my beeswax I have my resin I have my jojoba oil and I'm just stuck. Thank you for the excellent idea of putting aluminum foil on my iron. I will be implementing that to try and fix my wax. Any suggestions I would gladly accept.

I appreciate the info but wonder how fit for purpose they are? Like do they form a good enough barrier for oils/liquids from food?

This is reusable for how many use? How long it stays? Do i have to put more wax every sometime?

Any ideas on what type of store sells pine rosin locally?

What does the pine rosin do? I've seen people use different alternatives, or even none at all, if I am to make this, is it worth it?

I agree that the size options are limited, and I also would like the option of a very large size wrap, but... You found that ADORABLE bee and honey comb design bland?!! 😦🤨

What about pouring it into the cloth and using a putty knife to swirl in?

Me animé solo una vez a hacerlo con buen resultado. Lo único que nadie me dice es cómo limpiar los utensilios, cómo limpiar la resina. Gracias si puedes ayudarme.

The wax paper bled its’ wax onto your iron. Using parchment paper, the wax wouldn’t bleed wax so the foil on the iron is not necessary.

I’m curious what is the purpose of the pine resin? Thank you

Use a solid small foam roller to put wax on

Can I use any kind of fabric? any suggestions the best fabric 🤗

Hi, can you make these without the rosin? Is that compulsory?

Hi quick question - do you only brush the beeswax on one side? or both?

Think you !

I work in a small biological cake shop/coffee shop and we try to minimise waste as much as possible. I just wonder if they are actually work great of use in a restaurant.

can I use it to wrap a bowl of meat, I'm afraid that I can't clean it after

Did you have any that dried flaky? That's the issue I've been having and any tips would be great! I tried ironing to even out the wax but still seems like too much

Why didn't you use a paint roller to apply? They have sponge paint rollers

How do you melt the wax and pine rosin?

Does the material need to be 100% cotton?

Can this be done without the pine rasin?

What kind of cloth do you use

why pine resin?

How did they hold up over the last year?

Where did you purchase the wax?

How did u melt the wax

Красно дякую

Can someone please comment on the ratio of ingredients please

Purpose of adding the pine rosin?

Why rosin???

What is pine rosin

Why pine rousin?

Don't you wax that side that goes against food?

Parchment paper.... the clue is in the name of the wax paper. Don't use wax paper to bake with either.

Thank you for the tutorial. // SHLM & HaB (peace & love). The Name of the Creator is Hayah asher Hayah, as what He told Moshah (Exodus 3:14), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. There is a curse to the G-o-d name (Isaiah 65:11-12), preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures. All followers of the Messiah are to do the 7 appointed times (Leviticus 23), but no more animal sacrifices, following the Crucifixion of the Messiah. We are now of the order of MLK TSDQ (King, righteous), to Whom ABRaHM tithed. Ask the Messiah to be your personal Savior. He said to him, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6). All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of Hayah (Romans 3:23). The wages for sin is death but the gift of ALaHYM is Everlasting Life through Messiah Yahushgh our Master (Romans 6:23). That if you confess with your mouth the Master Yahushgh and believe in your heart that ALaHYM raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved (Romans 10:9). He Himself is an Atoning Offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world (1 John 2:2). The Messiah died on the cross, & Resurrected three days later (presenting Himself as First Fruits to the Father). Please ask Him to be your Savior. He is the ONLY way to Everlasting Life.

What is the ratio of bees wax vs pine rosin that you mixed in that bowl? 🥣
