Tips for beeswax use includes:
- Run your sewing thread against a block of beeswax a few times – it will slide through the fabric easier, prevent longer threads from tangling, make the thread sturdy and waterproof
- Lubricate a sticky window or drawer
- Condition wood cutting boards
- Condition and waterproof boots, saddles, bags or other leather products by rubbing into the leather with a dry, clean cloth, working it in well along seams. Let dry, then buff to shine.
- In the garden, beeswax can be used to make pest deterrents
- Removal of rusted nails or bolts
- Coat hand tools, shovels, or cast iron pieces to prevent rust from forming. This includes treating wood handles to preserve and protect them from degrading.
- Polish concrete counters, granite, wrought iron – both inside and outside of the home
- Preserve a patina. Seal a copper sink by rubbing it with softened beeswax and polishing off the excess with a lint-free rag
