Step-by-Step: How to Make a Wax-Dipped Tulip Bouquet
Supplies Needed:
    Fresh tulips (6-12 stems)
    The ToAuto wax melter
    Soy wax flakes or beeswax (unscented or lightly scented)
    Essential oils (optional, for fragrance)
    Clippers & parchment paper

Step 1: Prep the Tulips
    Cut stems to your desired length (leave extra for trimming later).
    Remove excess leaves and let flowers dry slightly (too much moisture causes wax bubbles).

Step 2: Melt the Wax
    Fill your ToAuto wax melter with wax flakes (about 1 cup for 6 tulips).
    Set to low-medium heat (around 130°F/55°C) to avoid burning the wax.

    Optional: Add 5-10 drops of essential oil (lavender or rose work well).

💡 Tip: ToAuto’s adjustable thermostat ensures wax melts smoothly without scorching.

    Step 3: Dip the Tulips

    Hold a tulip by the stem and quickly dip it into the melted wax.
    Let excess wax drip off, then place on parchment paper to harden (~2 minutes).
    Repeat for a second coat if needed (for thicker preservation).

Step 4: Arrange Your Bouquet
    Once all tulips are waxed, trim stems evenly.
    Tie with a ribbon or wrap in decorative paper for a polished look.

Pro Tips for the Best Results
🌷 Use slightly wilted tulips – Fresh ones release moisture, causing wax cracks.
🌷 Avoid overheating wax – ToAuto’s temperature control prevents yellowing.
🌷 Store in a cool place – Wax-coated tulips last longer away from direct sun.
