Crayola Hearts

I Heart Crayons
I found this idea from Heather of Whipperberry blog
and thought I can do that!
Working with 1st graders always involves crayons
lots and lots of broken crayons
which is perfect for this project-
I got a great silicone heart mold at Joann's for $6.50-
(all the valentine's supplies are 50% off-woohoo!!)

I peeled the paper off and chopped up all the crayons
arranged them by colors that coordinate-

I sprinkled some glitter in random hearts
and added the chopped crayons-
Put them in the oven for 15 min. at a 230 temp-



Voila!
Aren't they adorable
and I'm all ready
 for the kiddos!!


Take care, gotta fly-

I'm partying at.....

  4. These are soo cute! I saw this idea on pinterest but it never occurred to me to use these as valentines. Such a great idea and definitely on my list to do for my daughter next year as she heads to preschool:) Thanks so much for coming by the crib to visit. Enjoy your week!
