Recycle Your Own Crayons...

Did you know that you can


make your own awesome recycled solar crayons?




Yup, it’s a snap. Grab all your old broken crayon bits. Fill up a metal muffin pan or other non-stick mold (metal, silicone) with all the old broken crayons. Place in the hot sun and wait a while. Once they melt together remove them for fun chunky or molded shaped rainbow crayons.

TIP: If you make the crayon bits tiny or shred them on an old grater, they'll melt faster and more smoothly together.
