Melting crayon canvas

Fun craft to do with the kids . My daughter loved watching the crayon run down the canvas. Can also add kids names to the bottom for a special touch

Material

Hot glue gun
Packet of crayons
Hair dryer

Method

Use the glue gun and glue the crayons to the top of the canvas and let dry
Place your canvas on slant and place the hair dryer at the tips of the crayons. This will melt the crayon and let it run down the canvas till you have the look you are after.
Once done let the canvas dry and you have your own colourful wall art can add names at the bottom for kids rooms
