A significant number of people are joining the trend of reusing objects and making crafts, even with colored crayons. Yes, you read that right; With the pieces of crayons you can develop very good ideas. Less garbage for the environment and a useful ornament for the home.
Coating surfaces to give it a beautiful color is one of the main uses given to colored crayons, but for this you must first melt them. Interested in learning more about this DIY idea? We developed some options to stimulate creativity after your child has had fun painting and only pieces remain.
1. Fun figures to reuse colored crayons
A project to do with children is this. The idea is to recycle the strands of crayons to melt them, together or separately.
Then make molds of various shapes and waxed paper to put it as a support. At this point, smear the edges of the mold with a little oil, as this will facilitate unmolding.
Now, you can pour the warm crayon, one by one, to form cute layers of colors. Expect it to solidify and unmold carefully. You can reuse that figure to make other crafts.
2. Beautiful candles
Useful, beautiful and aromatic if you put a little of your favorite essence. Candles made of crayons for those who enjoy this type of lighting. What do you need? Mechas, a glass container, melted recycled crayons, paraffin and some essence of your choice.
Heat the separate crayons and mix them with a little warm paraffin and a few drops of essence. Take a piece of wick or pabilo, just a little longer than the mold, tie a knot at one end and that side is going to go to the bottom of the container.
At that point, you can pour the mixture little by little into the mold if you want the difference in colors to be marked. You just have to wait a few minutes until the first layer cools to add another.
3. Colorful stained glass windows when reusing crayons
A work of art to highlight the home. You will need a sheet of acetate or filamine, embossed paste and melted crayons. Draw the shape you want the stained glass to have; It can be geometric figures or flowers, for example.
Then, border the drawing with relief paste and proceed to fill it with the wax of the melted crayons. In this project it is important that you give free rein to your imagination.
4. Creative paintings with melted crayons
This is one of the most popular ideas or crafts with colored crayons. However, keep in mind that although new crayons are usually used in social media videos, this time what counts is reuse.
So, you have probably seen a woman, a couple or an elephant with an umbrella under the colored drops. And while it’s true that you can replicate the design, also consider that you have a blank canvas to do whatever you want.
In addition to colorful crayons and a canvas, you will need a hair dryer. This is essential to be able to melt the colors.
5. Bring your glass jars to life!
Another activity that children enjoy. Take several empty compotes jars and start customizing them. Then they will serve to store other objects. You just have to melt the crayons, make figures and stick them to them.
