I made some crayons the other day for a birthday party. I used this silicon baking tray, which we won in a raffle and heated them at a low temperature (200ish) in the oven until they melted. The crayons turned out really well, especially the ones with bits of similarly colored crayon. I wish I had taken a picture of the finished gift but I was frantically running around trying to get out the door to the birthday party and it completely slipped my mind. We gave a little sketchbook and a rainbow selection (six crayons) tied up with a little piece of pretty paper and ribbon. I think it looked nice, but I should have included a more descriptive message in the card because the recipient’s mom was entirely sure what to do with them! Note taken.

I love this! I am totally going to melt some crayons. Did they stick to the pan when you tried to remove them?
