Beeswax Ornaments

     The idea of wax Christmas tree ornaments is not new. Before blown-glass ornaments were popular, the Lebkuchen bakers of the sixteenth century Germany created the first beeswax ornaments by using their gingerbread molds. They used honey for baking and with the leftover wax from the honeycomb they made replicas of their molds to use as decorations for the home and for Christmas. German immigrants brought this art form to Eastern Pennsylvania in the late seventeenth century. Colonial woman gathered honey from wild beehives found in wooded areas. They removed the honey from the comb and used the wax to mold decorations for their home. At one time wax ornaments imported from Germany were an important part of our Christmas tradition. The ornaments we make are 100% natural beeswax, molded from cookie and candy molds, they will make a unique gift.We hope to continue this tradition.

     Delicately hand poured ornaments with rich accents of gold, these you’ll be proud to have this group gracing your next Christmas tree.
