Crayon Craft Ideas

I am taking a break from my series on birthday parties to share these links to some wonderful craft ideas for recycling old broken crayons. If you do any of these crafts, please let me know how they turn out!

• Crayon Candles
(what a unique gift idea!)
• Melted Crayon Hearts
• Melted Crayon Earth (use this basic concept to create flowers, animals, etc. all you need is a different image)
• Recycled Chunky Crayons
  (similar to melted crayon hearts)
  
• Melted Crayon Ornaments (idea: once it's cooled, cut out a small heart, square, or wreath shaped frame and add a current picture of the artist for a precious keepsake ornament!)
• Cookie Cutter Crayons (use this basic concept with any number of molds - candy molds work great!)

All of the above crafts are from BabyCenter.com which is a great resource for fun and educational kids activities.


After thought: Several of these would make great party favors!
