Wax Sandwich Wrap

Keep your lunch fresh in these stylish wax wraps!

As a thank you for being a member, I'm sharing this project from my brand-new book, Sew Eco-Friendly! Inside there are dozens more projects for you to stitch or make, all showing you ways of making meaningful life swaps to help reduce waste and live more sustainably. Remember: as a member, you get an exclusive 30% off this book's retail price (as well as all my other books!) when you purchase it via the Search Press website. To find out more, take a look at the "Books" page on this website.

These wraps are so simple to make in your chosen fabric and size. I’ve used a beeswax bar, but pellets are also available if you prefer. And remember, don’t use heat to clean your wraps as the wax will melt – they will easily wipe clean.

Finished size: 13 x 13in (33 x 33cm)
