Crafty Crayons

On Saturday I made jumbo crayons out of some of our old broken ones for a craft project I have coming up next weekend. This is a great project to do with the kids and you can mix up the colors to make crazy tie dye crayons. Here's how to do it...


Start by gathering all the old broken crayons in the house and have the kids peel off all the paper wrappings. Take a muffin pan (or something like it) and spray it with pam. Let the kids add the crayons to each slot.
Heat the oven to 325 and place the pan inside. It should only take a few minute 10 - 12 for all the crayons to melt. Check on it frequently, they should come out looking like this...

Place them on the counter to cool and when almost solid into the freezer for a few minutes. Turn the pan upside down on a towel and wipe off any leftover pam. Hand them over to the kids and let them go to town.
