  4. I don't even think I've ever used wax paper unless I needed to wrap my gingerbread cookie dough for the fridge. How are the dying and crayon techniques created? Very cool. Didn't think anything would stick to the paper. And how did they keep the cut out hearts from curling?

  5. Wonderful projects, thanks for bring them to our attention.

    I vaguely remember pressing fall leaves between sheets of wax paper as a child in school. It was a fun project, but we never did anything clever with those finished, foliage filled,sheets . . . what a waste!

    Also these give me ideas on how to use up that roll of wax paper that I've had in my pantry for over 6 years now. :D

  8. These are all really great projects to try. I've wanted to try the pressed flowers/leaves lanterns, and the hearts (crayons & wax paper) look really fun! Oh, and I will definitely try that wax paper wrap this holiday season!
    Great post!

  13. I must admit I have never yet bought or needed wax paper. But obviously you can use them for some beautiful crafting projects.
