Recycle your Grotty old Crayons!!

We have a mountain of old broken crayons, so yesterday, my two boys and I (home from school due to a snow day - needed entertaining!) recycled the crayons to make some lovely new ones

So cute and such a great idea. Thinking this would be a cute favor for a party too.

I was so inspired, I spent the day peeling crayons and making some for my grand kids. Thanks for sharing the link and your pictures, AWESOME!

Awesome idea. Finally I have a use for all those broken bits and tips my kiddo's always making.

I love this idea!  I'm going to hunt for broken or too-small-to-color-with crayons tonight and see if I can breathe some new life into them!

Such a charming, clever way to put those crayon bits to usefulness!  Thanks for sharing
