Who this list is for
This checklist is for anyone preparing to add wax seals to thirty invitation envelopes—wedding planners, event hosts, or crafters working on a batch. It’s designed for projects where all invitations are ready to seal and you want a clean, efficient process with minimal mess.
How to use this list
Set up your work area with the silicone work mat and heat-resistant trivet to protect surfaces. Arrange blank envelopes in a stack nearby. Place wax beads, melting spoon, and wax seal furnace within easy reach. Light a tea light candle under the furnace, melt a few wax beads in the spoon, and pour onto the envelope flap. Press the brass wax seal stamp into the melted wax, then lift after a few seconds. Use the wax seal release pad to clean the stamp between uses. Tweezers help with positioning or removing any stray wax. The metallic paint pen can add detail to each seal if desired. Keep paper towels handy for spills.
What to skip
Don’t try to melt too many wax beads at once; it can overflow and waste material. Avoid working without a silicone mat—wax is tough to remove from most surfaces. Skipping the release pad can cause the stamp to stick and ruin seals. Don’t use regular candles instead of tea lights; they burn unevenly and can scorch your tools.
What is on this list
Included are sealing wax beads, a wax melting spoon, wax seal furnace, brass stamp, silicone work mat, tea lights, blank envelopes, wax seal release pad, metallic paint pen, tweezers, heat-resistant trivet, and paper towels. Cross off what you already have—like paper towels or a metallic pen—so you only buy what’s missing.
After sealing the invitations
Once all envelopes are sealed and cool, stack them gently to avoid flattening the wax. Wipe down the melting spoon and stamp before storing. Extinguish all tea lights and let tools cool completely. Store leftover wax beads and candles in a dry place for future projects. Dispose of used paper towels and check your workspace for stray wax drips before calling it done.
