DIY Crayon Name Boxes
This is the most popular Christmas gift idea this year for daycares and kids! Make personalized crayons with each letter of the kids name then put it in a box! So darling. The ones above were made by Allison Reneau.
(Here’s Susan Ibarra’s Friday night!! :)
Supplies Needed:
“I used crayons crayons, had to peel first but used an exacto knife to slice the side open first. Chopped crayons into about 1/4inch sections. Put in molds. 220° for 10 min then I pulled them out and added a little more crayon because they melt down, I always added more before completely melted so the colors didn’t mix altogether to much. Then back in oven about another 10 min once completely melted I put out on the deck to harden for 10 to 15 min. Once you bring inside let it warm up a bit. They will break if you try and take them out right away. It was a very fun project. I ended up redoing all of mine because I crushed crayons first with hammer and all the colors ran together and they all looked dark brown or black. So a little bigger chunks I think is better.” -Theresa McGinn
