Super Crafty!

This weekend my step-mom had to leave town and I was left in charge of the four younger kids. Emma is twelve. Alex is 6. Jared is 5, and Eric will be 3 this month. Aye-aye-aye!!!! They all have so much energy! I knew that I would have to come up with something awesome to do to keep them occupied.

Well, I've seen these all overPinterest, I've Stumbled over it a few times and even seen it on some Blogs and to tell you the truth, I just couldn't help myself!

We started with a box of 64 crayons. Took out all the blacks and browns and used another smaller box so I had more of the good colors.













Then we hot glued the crayons to the top of the canvas. Looks good so far huh?!











After that we all took turns with the blowdryer.

























After just a little while with the blowdryer the wax starts to get real shiny and then .......




VOILA!!!!!

Perfection!








The kids had such a great time! And they behaved! ...for the most part anyway.

Happy Crafting!
