This is a non-toxic way to add a DIY Gilding Wax to your embossed card panels for amazing sparkle and shine. I hope you give this a try and let me know if you want me to show you how to make the paper clay birds! Have an amazing day!
OMG i see this rubb on, on sites all the time and see fab videos too, but the price here in Holland is way too high for me. Was just (after watching your video about diy exploding powders, first i thought i did want to buy the Arteza micopowders) remembering how many perfect pearls i have, and those bottles are way too small to use amounts of, BUT THAN YOU MENTIONED MAKE UP, YEAH, i have lots if shimmer make up i don't use, yeah!!! Those extra tios you give makes watching your channel extra nice (although the rest of your channel is amazing too😉😂), thx soooo much👍😘
If you want that true waxy or thicker texture cold wax or wax medium can be used. Dorlan's wax medium is what I used. I orig bought it because it's a cheaper alternative to Tim holtz micro glaze and it comes it a huge jar, so I used it to make these rub n buff dupe. If you wanted to use it on furniture I'm sure a wax sealer (wax based usually in a paint can type package) would be more appropriate than the wax medium although it might be no difference. But for paper the wax medium works great.
I have been looking for a diy gilding wax and so happy I found yours. I have both on hand and going to try it. Another went thru so much trouble of melting bees wax adding other things like clear glue. This is just wanted I wanted thank you. I saw in the comments someone also used a cold wax medium. I ordered that as well to try. Thank you so much for an awesome video and keeping it short and to the point. ❤️
Hi Kathya! You made my day when I did a search after watching Ardyth's video today where she imbedded the use the Tond-Oh, your invention! This is a great video, loved the effect of the DIY gilding wax, very true to your creativity, Thank you! I would love too a video on the creation of the beautiful birds. Glad you are back!
Thank you for this. I have tried before with varying results but this looks great, I was going to try some clear gel gloss medium too so I will tell you how that goes.
You’re welcome! If enough folks are interested in how they’re made, I’ll certainly do a short video on that. There’s a nice trick that I learned on how to keep them from falling apart and it’s so helpful. Thank you for watching! ♥️

I am so happy you did not remove the plastic from the BetterPress. It will definitely save it from becoming a mess! ANY mica powder will work! If you have cheap eye shadow, use that! You will love the same results but not pay an expensive price! ♥️
I hope you don’t mind I posted your video in the Facebook group Mixed Media Soulmates showing how I tried to make them. Thank you again for sharing this!
@@KathyaKalinine it went pretty well I think 2 out of the 6 I made I added not quite enough of the wax paint but just added some more and stirred it again! I posted pictures of mine on the post if you’d like to go look- I hope it does help to get you views and subscribers!
Awesome! That wax is super forgiving so you can always add more, I found. So happy it helped. I love the cost, too. Less expensive than buying a million colors of wax. Can you link to the post? I’d love to see! 🙂
I will be honest here…I made my samples, put them in jars and while there was a bit of air in the jars, it dried out. So, I recommend that you only mix the amount you plan for your project. Other than that, this way of wax application is amazing. And it is solid with no other additional product required to seal it. If you have more questions, let me know! ♥️
Hey Kathya, I love your waxes they are beautiful, and I love your embossing folder with the roses (on the black card) can you tell me the name of it please ?
Hi! I bought it from Crafters Companion via Amazon. Here’s the link to the item but it doesn’t appear to be available any longer. I’m sure you can do a Google search to find it. Hope this helps! Crafter's Companion Parisian Embossing Folder 5"X7"-Peony Trio www.amazon.com/dp/B07MQN4NDZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_gl_i_FC0HZ4FZDJFVP6B1B513?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I used this one. If this is new to you, don’t spend a lot of money. Use this one first. If you like the results then you can obviously order more! amzn.to/32EG0xc
Hi Karthi! Unfortunately, I don’t know the answer to that question. You might try to experiment on a test piece of glass and let it cure and then seal it…let me know how it goes! 😊
Hi Tiffaney! I noticed they kind of dried up a bit, but because it’s wax based, you could easily warm it up with a heat tool. I decided that I will only make up enough for my project instead of keeping them in little jars. I don’t really have the space for them. I hope this helps! 🥰
On this video you talk about using Waverley clear wax but the links are for another product? I’m kind of confused could you could please help me? Thank you
Hello. Kathya. Do I need to add mineral oil and clear elmers glue as a bonding agent? Thank you. Your video seem to be much more simpler than the ones I have watched. Every ones method makes work, but I need a way to stop spending more money. 😩 Also, can this wax be used over chalk painted projects?
Hi! I still have a few of the cards I made using this wax. The wax ‘cures’ (hardens) over a short few days and when I last checked, it doesn’t rub off. It’s really a neat product and you do not need to buy the larger jar. There’s a two ounce one, too, in case you just want to try it. I haven’t tried it on painted surfaces, but if you search the internet, I’m sure you’ll find someone who will demo it. I hope this helps! 🥰
Hi Curtis! This wax has properties that make it harden and set over time. I did not seal mine and they are set on the card panels. It does not rub off at all! 🙂
@@KathyaKalinine Thanks. I'm looking for a way to gild the edge of paper for quilling and I think this is something I'm going to try. Most people use the foil sheets but that limits the colors you can do. If I can use wax and mica powders there are many more color possibilities.
On the back of the bottle, it says it is a wax infused protectant. I noticed when I used it on the embossed image, it dried very solid. It is a beautiful finish in my opinion. I can wipe my finger across the panel and nothing comes off. I hope this helps and thanks for watching. ♥️
Kathya, could you please check the volume of your videos? I love the content, but the sound is so quiet I pretty much can't hear you at all. I know it's not my laptop, as it's brand new and all other vids are fine. Thanks a bunch!!
This was well worth the wait, thank you so much! OK, so going to have to save so I can invest in mica powders and the Waverly wax...they will bring the quality of a card up multiple notches. Blessings! OH YES!
Yay! So glad you found it helpful! Remember that you can also find sparkly eyeshadow powders at Dollar Tree, too. So, you can buy the small 2 ounce bottle of the wax and test out if you want to invest in the mica powders. Blessings to you, too! ♥️
@@KathyaKalinine Well, that might be an option, yes...except I found out yesterday that my radiator has a hole in it, the fluid I put in was on the ground in seconds...and there is no real public transportation in my rural area of Maine, so, can't do that for now, but hopefully someday in the future. Thanks for the info though, I will use it as soon as I can. Blessings!
Please verify. Your link takes me to folk art. Home decor wax. You said and showed in video it was Waverly clear wax. Which is it. Or does it matter. Thank you
Either of the links I list will work. They are in a semi-liquid form and will work. I think my bottle has the word Waverly on it because they’re marketing to a line of furniture chalk paint which works well with this liquid wax. You can try the small bottle to test it out just to be sure. But it’s the same product I used in the video. Let me know how it goes!
Not sure if its just ne, or my phone, but i had to turn my volume all the way up and still could hardly make out what you were saying the entire video. It sounded like you are whispering. Again, I'm not sure if its my device volume not working right or what, but i wanted to let you know. Please dont take my comment as negative, it's definitely not! Just trying to give helpful feedback. Thanks!

Hi Kathya you look beautiful like your work
You’re so kind. Thank you. My husband agrees with you! 😊
thanks for sharing amazing content keep in touch
I sure will! ♥️
Amazing thank you. Can you use Vaseline. Regards Gloria
I am not sure that would work. I think it would be a bit ‘oily’ and not ‘cure’ like the wax will. But experiments are fun!
I would love to see how you made those clay molding birds
You bet! Just like this and the video is super short! Paper Clay Mould Art Made Easy! 👌🏻 #Shorts

Most of them are from Altenew. One of the ones I used is no longer available. 😢
