Wednesday, November 12th-Melted Crayon Hearts

November 12th, 2014

You'll love today's DIY! Your heart will melt for this craft! (Yes, puns intended) 


Steps: 

Using a knife, cut up pieces of old or new crayons (doesn't matter if it's old or new, I just like to use old remains of crayons to get rid of them) I suggest putting all the crayon pieces into a bowl so it's easy to contain and make less mess. You will need cupcake trays in the shape of hearts to make actual hearts. But, if you want to experiment, use circles or squares or any shape you want! Next, put the crayons into the sections, filling it to the top. Bake at 230 degrees for 15 minutes. Always remember, be careful with the oven and knife! Once you have allowed your hearts (not your real hearts, your crayon hearts) to cool, take them out! A cool idea is to glue them onto a piece of scrapbook paper and write: Happy Valentine's Day for "crayon" out loud! You can write your own things too! For example, I came up with: You melt my heart! (Get it? Cuz the crayons are melted and they are hearts!)

Have fun experimenting with this project, it has lots of potential! You can either add a cute paper attached and have a cute poem or just hand out the hearts without anything, and they don't even have to be hearts! Have fun with this by changing it up! Live a little!
