It's been a while since I went through the crayon bin. There were a bunch of broken thirds and halves. I usually dump them in the trash can, but this time there were so many. I think Luther might be using them pretty roughly, and he easily breaks them.
久しぶりにクレヨンの整理整頓。今まで短いクレヨンを見つけるたびに捨てていたんですけど、今回はたくさんあったので、(ルーサーが力まかせに使って折れてしまっているような気がしますけど・・・)
So, I put them in an IKEA ice tray.
色別にわけて、IKEAで買った今は使わない製氷機に入れて、
Then, water bath in a pan.
湯煎で溶かしてみました。
It melted pretty easily. I used toothpicks to stir them.
途中、竹串でぐるぐるかき混ぜながら。
After cooling down, and un-molding them, here they are. Crayon hearts.
冷えたら、ほら、できた。
It seems like they are easier to use for a brand new 3-year old boy. He only picks heart crayons now. It's a fun project. Next time, I want to make marbled ones. I regret all those bunches of crayons I already threw away...
3歳のルーサーには、この方が持ちやすいらしくて、今はこのハートのクレヨンばかり使っています。
なんだか、とても節約した気分。今まで捨ててきたクレヨン、とっておけば良かったー。 今度はマーブル模様にしたいな。
