Does anyone have a recipe to share? I have been searching and most recipes have Turpentine in them and I would like to avoid that if possible. I was hoping for something that I could maybe add a little essential oil to but still retain the beeswax smell.

I would appreciate any thoughts or tips :)

Combine 1 ounce of beeswax with a cup of olive oil. If that is too liquid/to hard add more beeswax in tiny amounts! A little goes a long way! Rub in to furniture then buff with dry absorbant cloth to get rid of any extra oil that could rub off on clothes. Add a little lemon oil if your furniture is prone to getting build up.
