Somewhere, right now, a bee is making wax to build a honeycomb. That wax ends up in a factory. It gets pelletized. It lands on a shelf at Hobby Lobby. And then you turn it into a lip balm. That’s a supply chain that spans the insect world and a suburban parking lot.
So next time you see that little bag of golden pellets? Buy it. Sniff it. Melt it. You’ll smile. You’ll get sticky. You’ll understand why bees are the unsung heroes of the craft aisle.
Go get you some beeswax pellets. Your future candle self says thank you.
