The glue-sticks used are the "AdTech Crystal Clear Glue Sticks" from Walmart, for anyone wanting to know!
I had this idea in my head - and you made a whole incredible video about it. This is exactly what I was looking for to add to my junk journals. Thank you for a beautiful video!

Thanks Mags!
Great idea I’m going to make some
Great ideas! Never seen anyone use something frozen before, so will give it a try. TFS the inspiration!
I found kind of clear sealing wax sticks that are even better than glue sticks! I used them to make amazing transparent stamps. It seems like they're from a small brand called nex&co
That’s a really great idea and makes for really fun 3D ephemera/ texture to projects. I liked the tutorial.
Great idea!!!

How awesome is this? An ingenious idea for sure! Tyfs
This was perfect for me to see!! Thank you!!
What fun project. I love it
I was prepared to use resin. You just made it doable. What a great idea!
Really awesome it’s fall in Ohio so now pretty flowers 🌸 left for me outside, time to purchase a small bouquet 💐 and make for my stash. Thanks for sharing 🥳❣️
What a clever idea. They are so pretty. Thanks for sharing. :)
You can keep the metal seal sitting on the ice pack until you are ready to press it into the hot glue. It sets up quite quickly.
How clever!
Lovely creations.

Of course! Thanks for watching! Happy crafting. :)
I like the idea to put into a circle. Because my wax seals are never very nice and round. Lol
My hot glue (silicone) seals turn almost white, not as clear as yours, I wish they would be more translucent. :-/ Dominique
They’re very pretty what do you do with them?
Hi there! Found your video because I’m wanting to include clear wax seals on my wedding invites! What glue sticks do you use that is so clear?! I love it!

Hi Rebecca! Welcome to our little crafty family! 🤍 Thanks for subscribing.
What a great tutorial! I could not find the source of the clear hot glue sticks you used, please let me know as I cannot find a good crystal clear glue stick anywhere.

Hello, I believe these are the AdTech Crystal Clear Glue Sticks from Walmart. Hope this helps!
I think you're supposed to have the wax seal metal stamp sitting on ice BEFORE you place it onto the melted wax - at least that is the instruction I've seen in many other posts.
What hot glue gun do you use?
Was the wax seal stamp actually 1”?
I love your videos! Thank you for making them! Would you mind letting me know where to buy the transparent glue sticks? I saw that you have a link to the colored ones but not the transparent ones. I've been trying to look everywhere for the transparent ones but cannot find them anywhere. Thank you so much!

They are just regular glue sticks. The kind you usually use in a glue gun. Hope that helps!

@@twinkiebunny8450 I'm wondering if its her process? Putting the wax seal on then cooling it off quickly with an ice pack. Never seen anyone do that before and I've only seen them be cloudy as well.
Do the flowers rot?

Hi they are preserved (dried) so they last. :)
I'm confused, are you using a glue stick or clear wax?
@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340

The one used in the video is just a hot glue stick, not wax. These are faux (fake) wax seals made out of glue instead, so they are transparent. But we added a link to colored hot glue wax in the description box, which is actually wax, not glue, but works in a hot glue gun, if that's something you would be interested in instead. Hope that helped!

@myporchprints-junkjournalt5340 yes, thanks. But doesn't the glue stick to the stamper?
Weirdly, my glue doesn't come out clear. Am I using the wrong glue?

Why you call them "faux wax seal" ? This is true ones, isn't ?

It's because they're made from glue sticks, rather than actual sealing wax.
