Description

Create stunning suncatchers using blue crayons to brighten up your windows. This easy and fun DIY project is perfect for all ages and encourages creativity.


Ingredients

  • Blue crayons (different shades if possible)
  • Wax paper or clear contact paper
  • An iron (adult supervision required)
  • Scissors
  • Pencil (optional)
  • Optional decorations: glitter, markers, or additional crayon colors

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Lay down newspapers or a protective cloth to avoid mess. Gather all your materials for easy access.
  2. Shave Your Crayons: Use a pencil sharpener or knife to create crayon shavings. Enjoy the satisfying sound of shavings falling.
  3. Layer the Crayon Shavings: Place a piece of wax paper on your workspace and artfully scatter blue crayon shavings on one half.
  4. Seal the Suncatcher: Fold the wax paper over the shavings and press down with a low-heat iron for a few seconds.
  5. Cut and Hang: Once cool, unfold and cut your desired shape. Use tape to attach your suncatcher to the window.

Notes

For added creativity, try using different colors or shapes. Always supervise children when using the iron.
