Review on HITTLWARE Sealing Envelopes Metallic Decoration by Shantel Griffin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great stamp set and great price!

This is a great kit to get you started with wax sealing. I already had a few seals, but I wanted more wax. I've used wax sticks with wicks (it was too messy for me and I kept re-igniting the wax) and wax sticks with a melting spoon (also a little tricky). These beads melted in a spoon are so much easier! I have included a photo of my first print taken five minutes after receiving this kit. Here's a tip: put an ice cube in a ziplock bag and hold the stamp on the ice cube for about 5-10 minutes (the stamp should be cold but not wet). This will make it a lot easier to separate the wax from the stamp! The box of wax seals is a little smaller than I expected (I've included a picture of the wax set with a ruler for reference), but I'm very happy with this purchase. I wanted something to hold the spoon to melt the wax and I knew I wanted it made out of metal - after reading reviews of other sets I said the melted wood caught fire! After evaluating the materials, this kit really was the best value for money. The colors of the wax are a good choice and they match the colors in the photos in the listing. The envelopes were a little warped, but I didn't care. Overall the kit was packaged fairly well and everything was as I had hoped! I also received this set very quickly.
