Oct. 9th-10th
This last weekend I went through the painstaking process of rendering this seasons bees wax cappings. The process involves a large canning kettle 2/3 full of water, brought up to 190 degrees, and submerging a fine cloth bag full of wax cappings. This is repeated 3 times into the same capping to make a single block of pure organic bees wax. It smells heavenly!! I will then break apart, melt, and pour the pure, clean, wax into ingots. Some ingots will be used in making wonderful products such as lip balm, lotions, and even leather treatments.
