Wax Seals, 5 uses in wedding stationery

Wax Seal Ideas for Wedding Stationery

If you are getting married then you have been scrolling through stationery ideas on instagram, creating pinterest boards and dreaming of your wedding invitations. And yes you have seen them, those little circles of beauty – wax seals!

Wax stamps were traditionally used as a way to secure envelopes and scrolls before self adhesive envelopes were invented. Wax seals served as a tamper proof security whereas these days they are ornamental and used as beautiful decorations. Traditionally envelopes were sealed by melting a wax stick and using a metal wax seal stamp to create the seal and leave a beautiful embellished design. Wax seals continue to be made this way using sealing wax and a wax stamp but we offer the convenient option of a self adhesive wax seal which means you simply have to peel and stick.
