Waxmelting Tools
Our Waxmelting Tools are designed for artists, teachers and students who use melted wax for batik and encaustic art.
Our tools offer a safe and reliable way to heat paraffin, crayon, beeswax and soy wax. Once heated, our tools maintain an even temperature that keeps wax melted but will not burn it. No temperature regulator is needed!
Our encaustic tools can be used to apply wax to paper, canvas, cloth, or wood. Designed by art teachers, our waxmelting products are used by professional encaustic artists as well as by teachers in the classroom. They offer ways to work traditionally as well as expand upon traditional forms of creating batik and encaustic art.
Our Waxmelter Palette and Batik Pen are both electrically heated tools. Our Little Dipper and Squeeze Pen are designed to apply melted wax and are companion tools to the Waxmelter Palette. They allow you to apply wax in long, continuous, thick or thin flowing lines.
