My grandmother taught me to make covers for daily use to keep things covered but not air tight.. we just crochet a lacy edge around the fabric and attach beads on strings of the crocheted lace that anchor the covers so they won’t slip or blow off. They are good to cover dough as it rises and covers pitchers of tea etc. it’s another cover worth having and they last for decades!

@@maryjohnking5869 ...She took muslin and cut it into whatever size she needed...she made a small rolled hem around the edge and then she would crochet a little lacy shell stitch with a dropping chain stitch and she would add a bead and then chain back up to the edges and do that all around the muslin ...when it was on the bowl or pitcher it had a chandelier type effect it was pretty and very functional...I can't remember a picture as a child without those covers on everything...the beads she used were glass. I think you might be able to get a similar effect with store bought lace and thin ribbon to put the beads on...I don't think it will be as pretty but it should work. I hope I explained it well enough for you to get the Idea.

You mentioned using baking sheets that you might NOT want to reuse for baking but, in the 1800s, bakers waxed their metal baking sheets to make the original non-stick surfaces. They'd just rub a chunk of beeswax over it. I read about it in the Joy of Cooking, my mother's favorite cookbook. It's listed under Cookies, in the beginning part where they explain the tools used for cookies. Now that I've written this, I think I may prefer to wax my sheets instead of buying expensive parchment paper!

She turned to her husband who was an engineer and said, "Why don't you invent me something that will prevent my cookies from burning"? So, he took her seriously and did! 😉 The pocket of air prevents the burning on the bottom. You can even put it under a pie tin to prevent the bottom from burning.

You can also make a great dry skin treatment/chapstick by mixing coconut oil and beeswax-this also works great on pet paws that are dry or cracked (it’s great to put on before a winter walk to avoid getting any of the salt melt on the pawpads-it keeps them nice and soft and dry)

Less time consuming a bit more efficient and really presses the melting wax into the fabric. Also i am chewing on an idea that used pine resin to fight bacteria that MAY get into the cloth as it ages and thought it was clever as it also provides Tackiness for sticking tk itself as one may want to fold a sandwhich and the wax sticks to itself. Great show and Thanks for your method !) 😉❤️👍✌️

I use a solid material so there is no right side/wrong side and cut with pinking shears. Easy one step material. I am in love with mine. I made round and square and rectangle, all in different sizes. 😀😁😁 Works great to cover a tomato by the way 😉😉😉

I just caught one of your videos a couple days a go so I’m brand new to your channel and I was so surprised to see this video with your daughters. The video I saw before this one was by yourself and my thoughts was that you sure knew a lot of info and spoke very well to be so young and that your parents must have been making you do this since you were very young. I was shocked you had daughters this age. I guess it’s the clean country living cause you look amazing. I love this channel and I’m so glad I found it.

This is the same principle behind the original waxed paper. You could use butcher paper or baking parchment and imbue it with beeswax. That way, if you did want to use this product for something you wouldn't want to wrap in waxed fabric, there would be no worries. Even better, the waxed paper can be burnt, so if you need a fire starter, there you are.
