pancake

Place the wax between two sheets of wax paper and roll it flat using a round jar as a rolling pin. Or simply press the wax into a flattened form between fingertips. The flat pancake can be further shaped, added to or inscribed. For the youngest Kid Jewelers, squishing a round wax ball into a flat disc and leaving behind a clear fingerprint mark makes a wonderful keepsake. Aim to keep the thinnest areas of wax at least as thick as two stacked pennies.
