Recycle your crayons

Over the weekend my Lovies and I decided to go through their toy box. At the very bottom we found broken toys, missing pieces to Legos, train tracks, doll parts and tons of broken crayons. Don’t ask me how crayons make it in the toy box but they always seem to be in there. Instead of throwing them away this time around, we collected them all recycled them. Really easy to do.
remove wrapping from crayon then break them further if necessary to fit in mini cupcake cups
place in 200 degrees preheated oven and bake for approx 15 minutes or until melted. Let cool and peel the paper off. My kids wanted to mix the colors together but you don’t have to.

Oh, and I must thank one my best bloggy friends for a lovely package I received in the mail over the weekend. Thanks Sandy! They’re beautiful!! Pay her blog, Sandy A La Mode, a visit.  A truly lovely blog by a lovely girl.
