Hey All 

This week I will show you how I did  awesome melted crayon art and friendship bracelet to mark my year anniversary with my best friend Sammie. 

Crayon art

Okay so this is my first crayon art which I did on my own and here is how it was done. First I selected the colours I liked. I chose blues, greens and purples simply because they are my favourite (I did also add a few lighter colours in with it as well just to brighten the piece). I then took the wrappers off the crayons, lined them up on my canvas and stuck them down with duct tape. Like so. 

From there I used my hair dryer and pointed it toward the crayons, make sure you have something for the canvas or paper to stand on wax is pretty hard to get out of carpet! I also figured out (the hard way) that if you point the dryer straight at the crayons melted wax goes everywhere, so I pointed the dryer downwards. I then did this till most of the crayons has melted and the wax was down the canvas. I then removed the duct tape with the remaining crayons and let it dry. I also saved the unused and half melted crayons for another project.

Sammie and I also did this project together, I did it the same as before but only used reds and black. Sammie did the rainbow picture (as seen on the photo below) however she super glued the crayons to the canvas giving it this awesome effect.

Friendship Bracelets 

This week marked the anniversary of  the first I met Sammie! I left England for America and three months working in a lovely camp (as Sammie's co-barn counsellor), Thus the start of a beautiful friendship. To mark this occasion we made friendship bracelets, we will show you what we made.
