Melted Crayon Art with Switches

These crayon projects have been all over Pinterest and a few weeks ago my wonderful and artistic assistant teacher put together a project for my students to make some.

Most versions of the project on Pinterest call for using hot glue to attach the crayons to canvas and then using a hair dryer to melt the crayons.  We needed a less expensive version, so ours are mounted on rectangles of some fore core board we had and black masking tape covers the cut edges.  The silhouette images were made on a Cricut, but could have been hand cut is needed.  They are hanging from some left over black silk ribbon attached with more hot glue.

The project was adapted for the students, of course.  Students spent time choosing crayons and creating their pattern of colors.  They also choose their silhouette.  Staff hot glued the crayons on the fore core board.  Then came fun with switches!  The hair dryers were attached to an environmental control box (a Powerlink) and switches were used for the students to control turning on and off the hot air.

Didn't they come out beautiful?
