Catch the Sun with Crayons

Use those pesky crayon bits and ends to make a luminous suncatcher.

You'll need: waxed paper, crayon bits, and an iron set to warm.

Break up the crayons and sprinkle them on waxed paper. You can use a grater if you like. Thin and light pieces are best.

Place another sheet of waxed paper over the crayon shavings and press gently with a warm iron.

When your suncatcher is cool, cut it in any shape you like, punch a hole in it, and hang it in the window with a pretty ribbon.
