FAQ About Beeswax Wraps
How long do beeswax wraps last?
The lifespan of beeswax wraps can vary depending on how frequently they are used and how well they are cared for. On average, a well-made beeswax wrap can last for around 6-12 months, or even longer in some cases.
To help extend the lifespan of your beeswax wraps, it is important to properly care for them. This includes washing them in cool water with a gentle soap or detergent, and allowing them to air dry. It is important to avoid exposing them to heat, as this can melt the beeswax coating and cause the wrap to lose its stickiness.
Over time, the beeswax coating on the wraps may start to wear off or become less sticky. When this happens, you can refresh the wraps by placing them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and heating them in the oven at a low temperature (around 150-170°F or 65-75°C) for a few minutes. This will melt the beeswax coating and redistribute it evenly over the fabric.
