Crayons

So when I cleaned out my junk drawer, I realized I have way too many crayons.
What to do with them? I know, let's make multi color crayons.
Here's how:
.
.
Remove the wrappers and break into small pieces.
.
.
Place broken crayons in a tart tin. I kept like colors together.
Obsessive? Maybe.
..
Heat oven to 200*. Put tart tin on a cookie sheet, to protect oven from spills.
Put crayons, tin and cookie sheet in the oven. Heat until they all melt.
.
.
Let them cool completely, then pop them out of the tart tin.
I had fun making them. They are kind of hard to hold so no one uses them.
Oh well, they look cool. I still have too many crayons.
