Melting Crayon Creation

Melting Crayon Creation
Sooo.. I finally did the melty crayon on canvas project that's all over Pinterest. It turned out pretty neat I think..
One thing- you need a powerful hair dryer. Mine took forever.
 So, it's pretty self-explanatory but, you'll need crayons, canvas, and a glue gun.
Glue your crayons to the canvas.. that's pretty much all the prep you'll need. Easy huh?
I quickly realized that having your hair dryer blowing directly at the bottom of the crayon made the colors "splash" all over the canvas.. and not look too pretty (as shown above). So I moved the dryer to the tops and it worked much better.
 Now this process took quite a while, but once those crayons started melting, there was no stopping them! Stay in one section at a time.. And I'd recommend using a super powerful hairdryer or you could be doing this for 20 minutes!

Have fun!!!
