DIY Glitter Crayons

Re-cycled Glitter Crayons

How Fun, right?!         GLITTER!!!!!!       I don't think you can go wrong with glitter.

These were so fun and easy to make.  And I was happy to get all those old crayon pieces out of a bucket!  The kids really liked helping with this project too!

Well, in this picture you can't really see all the broken piece, They are all probably at the bottom.  At any rate, all you need is some old crayons, an oven safe pan, any shape will do, and your oven!

These are actually ice cube trays, I wasn't sure how they would hold up but they did great since the oven is at such a low temp.

Oh yeah, and glitter of course.  You have to have glitter, right?!

So, peel all the paper off your crayons…

Place your crayons in your molds...

sprinkle with glitter and place in a 200˚ oven for about 10 minutes.

Or until they are all melty, like this...

You could sprinkle some glitter on top as they start to harden too.

And another 10 minutes later you can pop them out of the trays and you have glitter crayons.  You can give them away as gifts or keep them for yourself. 

Aren't they cute!

I loved how they turned out and the kids love using them as well!
