Melted Crayon Art

I meant to post this like 2 weeks ago, things just got in the way!  Enjoy. 

So I saw on another bloggers site (here and here) about an art project melting crayons on canvas and just had to try it with the girls.  On Sunday after going to Michael's to get some canvas, the car battery dying, my husband having to come jump the car off, we headed home to start our project but got side tracked with getting Chinese food from ChopStix with my friend Robin.

Finally we settled down to start our art project.  We all decided to peal the labels off the crayons not knowing if the paper would catch on fire or not with the heat gun we were going to use.

 Daryan said it was not ready to have it's picture taken!

AND the finished projects, hubby made the frames for them.  These are hanging above the girls desk area.  Somehow I missed taking a finished one of Robin's "melting love" and Amber's "lol cow" once they were framed.  Amber gave the "lol cow" to her best friend, of course she LOVED it!  Strange kids...
