Alternative Imagination Pure Beeswax Bar - 1 oz Hand-Poured Block of Natural Golden Wax - Sustainably Sourced, Chemical-Free, Non-Toxic, Sweet Honey Aroma for DIY, Candles, Balms, Wood Polish & More

This is my new favorite wax for diamond painting! I've been struggling to find a good wax for multi placers, especially the really large ones that are longer than a square or heart of wax. I tried one from Etsy, but didn't have good results. The blue wax works really well, but I find it annoying to try and get it evenly into the larger multi placers. But this beeswax works perfectly! Now I'm using it with all my tips. You just scrape it into the tip, scrape off any excess, and it just works! It might be a little too sticky at first, but that quickly goes away as you use it, and I haven't had any issues when refreshing the wax (as opposed to the first time filling each tip). It's really easy to use and makes a really satisfying clicking/popping sound as you place the drills. And it smells nice!

Excellent quality!

Worked great on our kitchen cabinet drawers!

The Alternative Imagination 100% Pure Beeswax Bar (1 oz) is excellent in quality—clean, natural, and perfect for DIY projects, candle making, or conditioning wood and leather. It melts and works beautifully without any weird additives. My only drawback is the size. This tiny 1-ounce bar is much smaller than I expected, so it’s easy to go through quickly if you’re using it regularly or for multiple projects. It’s perfect for testing or small tasks, but if you need a larger amount, you’ll likely have to buy several. Overall, great beeswax and very pure—just wish it came in a slightly bigger size.

nice small bars for easy melting. no smell other than bees wax! I seem to sometimes order beeswax, and it comes through with a really strong floral smell, like maybe it is stored with some fragrance type products.

I purchased an ounce of this product three years ago with the intention of learning bookbinding. The beeswax works beautifully for waxing a linen thread for binding, and lasts a long time. Now, three years later, I am helping an aging relative with cleaning up her apartment. She asked me to apply WD40 to loosen up some ancient sticky painted wooden drawers. I have heard makers on Youtube exclaim their extreme dislike of WD40, so I experimented with the beeswax. To my surprise, the first thing I noticed is it was not rancid even after three years sitting in a box in my studio! The next thing I noticed is the lack of resistance or squeaking on her drawers! A week later, we both noticed they seemed to get better with use! As for my bookbinding efforts, life has brought new challenges and focuses, and I am still using my tried and true pamphlet stitch. But learning the coptic stitch remains a goal! TL; dr: I recommend having a chunk of this stuff in your “junk drawer,” especially if the drawer squeaks. The uses will reveal themselves over time, and the product will (hopefully!) still be fresh after three years. Reader, good luck to you in your endeavors!

I was having trouble opening and closing drawers on a four drawer chest that my father made back in the late 1950’s. I rubbed this wax onto the drawer slides and bingo…. slides like a charm now.

Used to assemble a 3 pc slate table. Worked great. I used bonds in the past but this is much easier.
