crayons can be stylish too!

i was just watching my littlest fellow, Rafferty, struggle with some crayons,..he just couldn't get a good enough grip to make decent markings,...


so,..i decided to make some 'rafferty friendly' crayons.


really simple to do,..and look so funky!


i broke up a packet of wax crayons into a greased muffin tray,.and popped them in a moderate oven for about 5minutes.  then straight into the fridge until hard.


in the meantime, i made a cute little fabric crayon roll out of a vintage teatowel..




cute, huh?!
