Not as easy as it looks.

Ok we all find something that is just not our thing. Some one else can make it look so easy then we try it and it becomes a total mess.

Well One (so called) easy project to do is melting broken colors to make new ones. This is something I never tried but always wanted to do. Well I had lots of time to spare today and I brought home my big bucket of broken colors. Here is a picture I found on pinterest of a beginning process. Of course they never showed what your counter will look like at the end or middle of the process.

Now for the normal person, that looks easy right. I guess I'm not normal. I made a mess. I think I went wrong with the colors. They used regular. But of course I'm not regular so I had to use jumbo. Here is my picture.

Well I tried. I did come out with a few of them but melting colors is not for me. But here is the site I found the first picture at. http://www.ohcrafts.net/kids-rainbow-crayons.php I just don't recommend jumbo colors they melt very thick and takes longer to melt. I will try it again one day with the regular size. Because I just saw a new idea about melting them in the used glue sticks.
