Instructions
How to Make Blue Crayon Raindrop Suncatchers
Choose your favorite shades of blue crayons and carefully remove their wrappers.
Use a pencil sharpener to make small shavings from the crayons, then spread them evenly on a sheet of waxed paper.
Place a second sheet of waxed paper over the crayon shavings.
Set your iron to the lowest setting and carefully press it over the top waxed paper for about 10-20 seconds.
Allow the melted wax to cool completely on a flat surface.
Once cooled, draw raindrop shapes on the melted wax and carefully cut them out.
Punch a small hole at the top of each raindrop and thread through string or embroidery floss.
Hang your suncatchers in a sunny window to showcase their colorful beauty.
Notes
Supervise young crafters during the ironing process. Use the right sharpener for easier crayon shavings. Always use waxed paper for optimal melting results.
