The tradition of sealing letters and documents with a personal wax seal is an ancient one. The first Great Seal of England was that of Edward the Confessor, and impressions of this seal can still be found. For centuries, it was common for most people to have their own seal made of lead, brass, bronze or silver. It was a tradition to destroy a seal once its owner died, so there aren't many originals around today. There is a special sense of completeness one gets when sealing a letter with a wax seal. This is how to make your own wax seal on an envelope.
Difficulty:
Moderately Easy
Instructions
things you'll need:
Seal stamp Sealing wax sticks Paper or envelope Cooking oil Flame or butane lighter
1Prepare the piece of paper or envelope you are about to seal by making sure the area is clean.
2Choose an appropriate seal; brass is good because it do not require oiling. There are hundreds of seal designs on the market, including letters of the alphabet to signify a family name, as well as all kinds of illustrations from dragonflies to sunflowers. It is also possible to order monogrammed seals. Choose the color wax you would like to use. Crimson is the most original and authentic color, but there are dozens of colors available.
3If the seal is not brass, oil it by dabbing a tiny bit of cooking oil onto it with a paper towel.
4Light the wick of your wax stick with a candle flame or lighter so that the wax starts to heat up and drip.
5Drip the molten wax onto the area you wish to seal. Drip enough wax so that it creates a pool the size of a nickel.
6Set the wax stick aside on a piece of tin foil.
7Press the seal into the wax vertically and apply pressure evenly so that the impression is made in its entirety.
8Lift off the seal and let the wax finish cooling.
9Protect the seal if not hand delivering the document or envelope. The wax can be brittle and break during its journey. Place it inside a padded envelope or hand deliver for best results.
