I've been busy baking for the holiday of love. First up, a Pinterest inspired craft to remove excessive sugar and HFCS from this holiday, all while recycling old broken crayons.
To make:
Remove paper from crayons using a utility knife (thanks mom for that advice--my nails and finger love you!) then break up into small pieces.
Melt in silicone heart shaped mold (I hear that you should avoid metal) at 250 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until melted. I let my little Valentine fill the molds.
Place on a little bit of stock paper with a witty saying, and send off to school! I found that neither the hot glue gun nor tape adhered the crayon to the paper, so I ended up tiring them up with ribbon.
Happy Valentine's Day. More to come tomorrow!
