I tends to run out too. But I have a lot of candles at home and soy wax.
I thought i would just cut an old candle into a strip lol ![]()
Yes, why not. Some of my old candles doesn’t have fragrance so I will be using those when I ran out.
Thank you @Wenbare
The windows between the red walls were made of unpainted wood. I thought it would look nicer to have the other color of the window frames come back. So I painted the wall around the frame a light yellow and the frame itself green, which I think fits the rest better.
Thank you @Nectarines
no there’s not enough wax for the whole build, but i have a lot of leftover wax sticks from other builds
I think i have one spare but i will just use candles. I hadnt seen anyone mention this in their reviews (maybe they have and i missed it) and i started to think maybe i was using way too much or something! Haha
You’ll never use to much wax on the build. It’s better to put a little bit more than to little wax ![]()
I always end up using all of mine. So never have spare with wax. Lolz ![]()
I used vasaline for a while so i have a lot of wax sticks left. When I found out that the wax worked better, I went back to using the wax ![]()
I think the wax sticks is neater to apply. Vaseline I have to use a brush .
The wax sticks are messier because they crumble. The Vaseline was easier to apply, but I noticed at one point that the Vaseline seemed to soak into the wood. With the wax sticks, the construction goes more smoothly.
Yeah they do leave crumble which I use a soft brush to brush away the excess.
I do not t the same way
When I wax, I put a baby wipe underneath that I can then fold up and throw away when I’m done. This way, crumbs don’t end up everywhere (sometimes it’s still ideal to have a small child and therefore have baby wipes everywhere, haha).
Fantastic idea. I usually build on my little wooden tray. When I finish I just give everything a clean.
but your idea is great and neat.
