Crayon melting in the name of art





This project has been all over the internet craft world lately. So Edie may be one of many of her peers with the likes of it on her wall. But, nevertheless, I like it! And it was fun and simple to make - so simple I made the whole thing while she was awake. No small feat. All you need is canvas, crayons, a hot glue gun, and a hair dryer. And *voila*! You've got a fun piece that is engaging, abstract, and full of texture. It will go above what is now a changing table but will soon hopefully be a blank space since obviously Edie will potty train herself before she's two. Right?!

A link to another example.

Right. She will not want to let her girl friends know that she is wearing a diaper. Or if not now, for sure before kindergarten.

Clever idea. How does it look on the wall?

Hey-O! - May not be relevant, but had to get one in there.

You got it in, Hey-O back. :)
