Sealing Your letters With Sealing Wax.

My Mother always had sealing wax in her writing desk, which as a kid I was facinated by.

Oh thank you! I'd forgotten the better part of that, and made a real mess of things last time I tried.

Perfect. :)

So did your mom use it when you were little, or was it just a leftover of former days?

Hi Jenny. I think it was a left over from former days. She showed me how to use it when I was little, but I don't recall seeing her use it on letters. I do recall though that there were different colours.
Regards.
