Good Late-Morning To You. ☕+🍫 I've just come back in from morning chores & cleaning old comb off of some frames (it was almost black on some & full of moth eggs from overwintering). Thinking I might render #beeswax today? 🤔 #beekeeping
Over the weekend Hubby ordered me a 3 lb. package of Carniolan #bees for pickup in April. I'm still hoping to catch a swarm this spring though. 🤞🏼
Hubby also slept thru his alarm this morning. Guess who saved him from being late? 😌
Have a good Monday!

It's hot enough in Perth today to rub beeswax onto a sanded salvaged jarah desktop that is sitting in the sun and have it melt.
Tiny bubbles come up as it soaks into fissure in the timber.The sheen below is melted wax - this will need to be wiped off at some stage as it will go translucent yellowish when it cools.
The final effect will not be at all glass-like.

#Online course - #Beekeeping for Beginners
January 24, 25 & 31 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
$45 – $105
"This is a 3 part webinar series with sessions taking place on: January 24, January 25, & January 31 from 3:00 – 4:30 p.m. All sessions will be recorded & the recordings shared with registrants. We will reserve February 1 as a snow date in case of power or internet outages.
There are so many reasons to keep honeybees – to support pollinators, for the joy of observing them at work, and for the #honey, #propolis & #beeswax that beekeepers can collect.
Join Master Beekeeper Karen Thurlow for three sessions to help you get ready for your first season keeping bees. She will prepare you for the earliest decisions you’ll have to make when starting out: what equipment to get (and where), how to put together a new hive and where to situate it, and what bees to order and in what 'form' (package or nuc). Karen will also introduce you to the lives of bees themselves – what their roles and basic needs are – as well as what you need to look for when inspecting your hive(s), and what each of the four seasons as a beekeeper will require of you."
About the instructor: Karen Thurlow is a Master Beekeeper and Master Gardener. Karen started beekeeping on her farm in 1978 after a class with the Essex County Cooperative Extension Service in Massachusetts. In 1995 Karen moved to Maine and her apiary grew to over 100 production colonies. Her experience includes raising queens, nucleus colony production, package bee sales, and wholesale and retail honey sales. She teaches beekeeping management classes, disease and microscopy classes, and serves as a consultant to organizations and beekeepers throughout North America. She is dedicated to raising healthy bees and sharing her know-how with other beekeepers. Currently, Karen works as the Chief Apiary Inspector for the province of New Brunswick. She has a small apiary of her own along the beautiful Chaleur Bay in northwestern New Brunswick.
Registration info: Tickets for this event are priced on a sliding scale, to keep our classes as accessible as possible. The recommended price for MOFGA members is $60; the recommended price for non-members is $75. Please pay what feels appropriate for you and your situation.
*Scholarship funds are available to community members in order to increase program accessibility. You’re welcome to use the fund by checking “Scholarship/JP” at checkout. Participants in MOFGA’s Journeyperson program are welcome to register at no-cost."

This method involves using #tallow and #beeswax to keep the end-product more workable. Note: The resin is very volatile! Only do outside and using appropriate precautions!
How to Make Pine Pitch
by Jamie L. Burleigh"I try to collect pine resin deposits that happen naturally, usually caused by a fracture in a limb by a storm, lightning, or animals scratching on the bark. I also gather resin that oozes naturally out of the broken knots in the pine tree. The runny clear resin, the dried up clumps of amber or the flakey white drips, dried from seasons past, are all good resin for making pine pitch."

How to Make Natural #Beeswax #FurniturePolish (Three Recipes)
Three flexible recipes for all-natural beeswax wood polish. One is a simple two-ingredient food-safe recipe that you can use to give shine to wooden kitchen implements and dishes. The second is a natural beeswax furniture polish recipe that protects wood and gives a soft glow to tables, cabinets, and other wooden furniture. The last is a traditional one that beekeepers make with harvested beeswax. Vegan alternatives to beeswax are also provided.
By Tanya Anderson, January 23, 2024
Excerpt: "Waxes for Furniture Polish
Beeswax is a medium-hard wax created by bees that adds a protective, water-resistant coating to wood and a mellow glow. I harvest it from my own hives, but you can buy it easily enough. Keep in mind that it is vegetarian but not vegan. A vegan alternative would be candelilla wax, rice bran wax, or coconut wax. Paraffin wax is another idea, but it’s not a natural ingredient.
Carnauba wax is a very hard palm tree wax with properties similar to beeswax in furniture polish recipes. It gives a hard, glossy shine to wood. If you want to use vegan wax to make beeswax furniture polish, this is a good option."Learn more:

The Path of the Giants and the Gods, Jose Benitz Sanchez
lots of stuff about the earth and thri ving and "plenty" in here. I really love these Huichol "yarn paintings" and I love that the traditional culture is maintaining in Mexico. My understanding is that they use peyote in a ceremonial way and maybe some of that is reflected in the vibrant colors. I want to walk around with this image in my head all day like a magic spell or shield against bad vibes ❤️

Three sets down! I finally have a waxing technique. Much less used, many fewer drips in places where I don’t want them. #accordion #beeswax

#Tallow And #Beeswax For #Leather Recipe
May 23, 2025
"Leather has been a trusted material for centuries, and keeping it in top condition requires a little care. That’s where our tallow and beeswax recipe comes in—a natural, time-tested solution for nourishing and protecting leather. This blend not only restores shine but also adds a layer of durability, extending the life of your favorite leather goods.
We love this recipe because it’s simple, effective, and free of harsh chemicals. Both tallow and beeswax have been used for generations to condition and waterproof leather. Together, they create a rich, creamy balm that works wonders on everything from boots to belts. Whether you’re a leather enthusiast or just looking to revive an old bag, this DIY recipe is a must-try.
IngredientsTo create this natural leather care recipe, we need just a few key ingredients. These come together to form a nourishing product perfect for maintaining and restoring leather items. Below, we outline the specific items required for this blend and their respective use.
What You’ll Need
3 oz of Tallow (preferably grass-fed for its purity and superior conditioning properties)
1 oz of Beeswax (use natural, yellow beeswax for the best protective barrier)
2-3 drops of Essential Oil (optional, adds a subtle fragrance and extra conditioning – choose scent-free if preserving natural leather aroma)
Small Heatproof Container or Bowl (for easy mixing)
Double Boiler Setup (ensures controlled heating and prevents burning)
Clean Cloth or Applicator Sponge (for applying the finished mixture to leather)Ingredient Notes
Tallow: Acts as a natural emollient, deep-conditioning leather to prevent cracking while replenishing oils.
Beeswax: Provides a water-resistant barrier, protecting leather from moisture and enhancing flexibility.Why?
1. Deep Conditioning and Moisturization
Tallow acts as a rich, natural conditioner that penetrates leather fibers deeply. Unlike synthetic alternatives, it replenishes lost oils effectively, preventing cracking and drying. Leather treated with tallow regains its softness and flexibility, making it look and feel brand new.2. Enhanced Water Resistance
