Wax Sealing

Stamps

I laser cut some stamps to be used for embossing into a sealing wax stamp


The first attempts were quite unsuccessful as I was trying to stamp the wax too quickly and to leaving it enough time to start to solidify



After a few attempts I started to get results that I had in mind. I was originally going to try and stamp directly onto the neck of the bottle but after trying it on paper it was difficult enough, there was no way that it would work onto an uneven glass surface.






Failed attempts


For some reason the smaller stamp produced better results than the larger one, I think because there was more wax in a smaller area.


This is how it would look when it has been cut and stuck onto the glass.
