Heart Shaped Crayon Melties

These are super easy to make, just a bit time consuming in the prep.

You'll need:

Old, broken crayons
Silicon cupcake pan
Cookie sheet
Bowl of water (optional)

Here's how you do it:

Remove the paper from all of the crayons! You'll need enough to fill about 1/2 - 2/3 of each mold. If you can't get the paper off easily, put the crayons in a bowl of water and let the papers soak. They should come off more easily.

When I get bored I peel crayons and divide them into bags
by colors. Strange, yes, but I like making melties. My son
likes them, too. 

Here's the tray all filled up. The smaller the pieces, the more
variation you'll see in the melty. 

Close up of the mold. This one I only put in variations of pink. 

Set the oven to about 225F. Put the mold on a cookie sheet.
It's too flimsy otherwise. The crayons will be liquid,
so this is very important. Peek in on the crayons after about
10 minutes. Once they melt, take them out. 

Wait until they cool to remove. They're quite hot right now. 

Once they're cool, pop them out of the mold. 

Ta da! Melties! You can do any shape, of course, but hearts are
festive for Valentines Day.
