Jodi writes about her waxed canvas experimentJodi from Sew Fearless decided the canvas she used for the “man-ified” version of her Mommy Poppins bag needed to have a more weathered finish.  So she waxed it.  The waxing gave it an edgier look and it also makes it waterproof.  As with any time you try something new, it took some experimenting to get it to turn out the way she wanted.  She shares a post on her blog telling what she used and how she ended up getting it to work.  Go to Sew Fearless to read about her adventures in waxed canvas.
