There are so many techniques you can do with this with different tools for accessorizing. This is what I had on hand and this is just what I can do. So where can you use this? Tuck spots placement, Junk journal, vintage folio, greeting cards, invitation, envelope ephemera mail décor. I mean you can do everything with this. You can find a way with ideas. Just think. It will look cool and more like vintage embellishment without a purpose, which naturally comes to be you can even use this as belly bands, huh? That is a good idea and gifting your wax seals like a pro packaging. Another idea!
