Materials needed: Step One: First, lay a sheet of wax paper down on a flat surface. Step Two: Now, take your cheese grater and grate the bits of crayon into small shavings over the wax paper. Step Three: Spread those shavings around until you are happy with the colors and patterns. Step Four: Lay the other sheet of wax paper on top of all the crayon bits. Step Five: Now (with an adult’s help), take a warm iron and press it over the top sheet of paper carefully. Step Six: Your crayon shavings will begin to melt into one another, forming pretty designs. Step Seven: When the wax paper has cooled down, take your creation, hang it in a window, and admire the beautiful colors and shapes!
