Feb. 3, 2009 - S is for 'Stained Glass "Valentine's Hearts
I try my best to include arts and crafts in our homeschool activities. My children LOVE to make things.
Yesterday, being the first school day in February we made some 'stained glass' hearts.
All you need is some old crayons, a crayon sharpener, wax paper, scissors, a dish towel and a warm iron.
Shave the crayons with a knife or gather the shavings from a crayon sharpener. Lay the shavings in between two sheets of wax paper.
Place a dish towel over the creation and iron gently with a warm iron.
The crayon shavings will melt and make a lovely swirl of colors.
Cut hearts out of the multi-colored wax paper and tape to windows and let the light shine through...
Have a great day...
