Old Crayon Window Art

Time: 30 minutes or more

Materials needed: Two sheets of wax paper (make sure they're the same size) Old bits of crayon An iron (Under adult supervision) An old cheese grater How would you like to use up your old crayons and decorate your windows... at the same time? Then get ready to try your hand at some wax paper window art.

What to do:
Step One: First, lay a sheet of wax paper down on a flat surface. You can leave it square or cut the 2 pieces into a shape (you will have to cut both pieces at once to make sure match.)
Step Two: Now, take your cheese grater and grate the bits of crayon into small shavings over the wax paper.
Step Three: Spread those shavings around until you are happy with the colors and patterns. If you want, you could lay a small picture or other small flat object in the middle and sprinkle the shavings around it.
Step Four: Lay the other sheet of wax paper on top of all the crayon bits.
Step Five: Now (with an adult's help), take a warm iron and press it over the top sheet of paper carefully.
Step Six: Your crayon shavings will begin to melt into one another, forming pretty designs.
Step Seven: When the wax paper has cooled down, take your creation, hang it in a window, and admire the beautiful colors and shapes!
