◆ Sealing wax
A fern frond curving up a 28 mm wax seal stamp, for botanical invitations, letters and gift tags.
A single fern frond, its leaflets alternating and shrinking toward the curled-over tip, raised on a 28 mm seal with a fine border. Seal rustic and woodland wedding invitations, botanical stationery, plant shop tags and nature journal pages.
Made with our free stamp maker, not modelled by hand: we drew the design in code, knocked out of a solid disc, uploaded the picture and set the circle shape to 28 mm across with the relief at 1 mm, enough for wax without trapping it. The page traced it into the face, so the design is cut into the stamp and stands proud on the seal. The zip holds exactly what the tool gives you: a stamp plate with a 1 mm raised face and a handle that screws into its back, as one STL, and as a 3MF with the face, plate and handle as separate coloured parts. The page mirrors the face, so the mark reads the right way round, and flares every raised wall a little toward the plate, which helps the stamp let go of warm sealing wax. The picture is in the zip too, so you can change it and make your own.
Shown as a 3D render of the printed stamp and the seal it presses into a puddle of wax, not a photo.
Print both parts as exported: the plate face down on the bed, the handle standing on its foot, no supports.
Screw the handle into the back of the plate until it is snug.
Chill the face on an ice pack for a minute.
Pour a puddle of wax a little wider than the seal, wait about ten seconds, then press the stamp straight down and hold it still for 10 to 20 seconds.
Lift straight up once the wax has set, and chill the stamp again before the next seal.

Forest and sage green are the obvious choice, and they look even better with a touch of gold on the leaflets. On kraft paper, ivory or copper wax gives a soft vintage look that suits rustic stationery.
No. Each leaflet is at least a millimetre wide, the finest line that prints cleanly with a 0.4 mm nozzle and still fills with wax. Print the plate at 0.12 mm layers and the tips come out sharp.
PETG for the plate if you have it: it stays stiff to about 80 C, where PLA softens near 60 C, and a fresh puddle of sealing wax is hotter than that for a few seconds. PLA works too if you chill the plate between seals. Skip TPU: a soft face blurs the design.
