Melt beeswax into patchwork fabric and use it as an alternative food wrap or as a lid for jars and bowls. The food wrap can be used again and again and is easy to clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Keep in a clean and dry place; flat, folded or rolled up. NB: do not use for meat or fish.

How to do it 
1
Wash the fabric according to instructions and cut a 14 x 14 cm piece of fabric using pinking shears.
2
Place a piece of baking paper underneath the fabric. Sprinkle grated beeswax on top, covering the fabric. NB: fabric with a white background turns off-white due to the colour in the beeswax.
3
Place another piece of baking paper on top. Iron with an iron on a medium setting until the entire piece of fabric is covered by melted beeswax.
4
Remove the baking paper and leave the re-usable food wrap to air dry (for approx. 30 min.). It is now ready for use and may be shaped around a jar using the heat from your hands.
