1. The classic, encased flower wax seal
Preserve your flowers and put them in the spotlight by pouring clear or semi-transparent wax over the flower and stamping it using a blank stamp.
Top 5 ideas & techniques for using dried flowers in wax seals
2. The embossed look
Instead of using a blank stamp, try using an engraved stamp to add a subtle, embossed design with your flowers as the backdrop.
Prefer a bolder look? Colour over the raised impressions with a paint marker to make the design pop.
3. Wax seal "pebbles" using pressed flowers
Pour a blob of coloured wax, place a small, pressed flower on top of it and allow it to cool without stamping it. This results in a raised, pebble-style wax seal that can be made in any size.
4. Wax seals with floral 'sprinkles'
This technique works best with confetti-sized dried flowers, like lavender or mini rose petals.
5. Wax seal floral stacks
Layer your florals before wax sealing them and create endless combinations of unique wax seals!
