Crazy Crayons





So here is the first project I did with my girls.

You need:

Crayons
Disposable small bread pan
And Adult supervision

You can use any mold, like cupcakes pan, mini cupcakes work great, but I used bread pan (that's what I had)

-Remove all the paper of the crayons and put them in the bread pan as you would like.
-Mix and match colors, remember that dark colors over take, so mix them up good.
-Preheat oven to 275 for about 10 minutes.
-Place the pan in the oven for about 20 to 25 minutes, don't stir the crayons until you see that everything is melted.
-Remember to be creative and to let you children experiment with mixing colors..
-Important: use cupcake liners when using you cupcake pan.. Use at least 2 to 3 liners per cupcake. Please wash your pans after each use.
-Please be careful when removing them from the oven and place them in a safe place to cool. It takes about 1 hours for cooling.
-Remove them carefully and cut with sharp knife if desire. Like I said, mini cupcake pan works the best, they are already small enough.

Hope you enjoy doing this project with your kids and they are fun to color with..

Update

Sorry for no recent postings, but i have been very busy trying to get all these project ready and running.

I am starting a Crayon Drive collection in the local schools, which has kept me busy.

So as soon as I start making these recycling crayons I will post pictures and all the info you need to make you own.

Also, I would recommend everyone to sign up with TerraCycle.com, they donate .2 cents to your the school of your choice for recycling candy, cookie, juice wrappers. So go check out the website and talk to your school..

Very easy, but have a limited space. Your school will have to provide some information.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and for considering to recycle...

MORE IDEAS TO COME....

Few More days left...Don't miss out..Ultimate Blog Party 2009

Start Now

Hello,

My name is Margie, and this Blog is to give you the necessary information for you to know what can be RECYCLE. I often think what else I can do to recycle and to help out others to do the same. Summer is soon approaching and its the perfect time to plan activities for the summer. Many children can be involve and teach others to do the same. I hope you find this place helpful and hope you can help out to.
