Hey! Back after a long hiatus and figured I would post a little something for the SAHM's. Was a beautiful Saturday today. Sophia and I decided to strike the insane local gas prices this weekend. We relaxed in our backyard, picnicked, and had home fun instead of a beach day. One of the projects we worked on was making new crayons out of all our broken pieces. Sophia has just about every color and restaurant crayon you can imagine (Rubios, Islands, Claim Jumpers). So after picking off massive amount of crayon wrapper and now suffering with sore nail beds, we came up with the following:
1. Use one silicone mold w/various broken crayons in any color combinations that suit your fancy.
2. Bake at 275 for around 15 minutes. You may need to swirl melted mixture with a toothpick.
3. Cool completely. The silicone makes it easy to take out along with making cool shapes. You can also use a regular muffin pan w/a bit of veggie oil sprayed in each cup.
Wha-La! You have a whole new set of fun crayons and have recycled in the process!
