Recycled Crayons

Our "New" Recycled Crayons

Yesterday Mommy got creative and decided to recycle some of the hundreds of broken pieces of crayon that are all over our house. It really is a simple project and the results are so much fun! I'm not sure who was more excited about the "new" crayon pucks, Mommy or Jackson :) Here's how we did it:

Recycled Crayons

What You Need: Crayon pieces, muffin tin, cooking spray

Step 1: Go on a hunt for broken crayons....this may take a while, they are EVERYWHERE!

Step 1: Broken Crayons

Step 2: Take off all the wrappers.

Step 2: Wrappers removed

Step 3: Break the big pieces into smaller pieces, an inch or so in size is good!
Step 4: Prepare a muffin tin with cooking spray.
Step 5: Put the crayon bits into the muffin tin. Try different colour combinations!

Step 3: Sort crayons into muffin tin

Step 6: Melt crayons in the oven at 250* for about 15-20 minutes. **This part is for ADULTS only!**
Step 7: Let cool completely.
Step 8: Pop your "new" crayon pucks out of the muffin tin.
Step 9: Find some paper.
Step 10: COLOUR!!!!!!! See what fun colour combinations you came up with!

Wrap them up with a little ribbon and these would make a great gift idea, stocking stuffer, birthday party favour.....the possibilities are endless!

I'm sure once I am back to teaching, I will have TONS of crayon bits to recycle!

Where did November go?

The month of November flew by! I don't even know what I did for most of it?? :) The pink peas turned 6 months & started "real" food! We went and cut down our tree at the Christmas Tree Farm! And Snowflake, our very own Elf on the Shelf, came to visit us for the Holidays!

In November the shop was busy, busy, busy!! In that month alone, I made over 70 pairs of mitten clips! A bunch of adorable holiday tutus and many, many clippies!

It's Getting Chilly....Time for Mittens!

The cold weather is here and that means it's time to pull out our mittens. Little kids lose things so easily and with Jackson in school this year I wanted to make sure he didn't lose his mittens! Last year I looked everywhere for mitten clips and could not find any. So this year I decided to make some myself. I also wanted to make them special for Jackson, so I added his name :) These mitten clips come in 6 different colours and can be personalized with any name!

October is BUSY!

Who knew October would be this busy?! Every weekend this month has been busy with sales, Thanksgiving, my birthday and a trip to the Pumpkin Patch! And the week days are just as busy with Toby starting puppy training, swimming lessons and Wee Wigglers classes! It has been tough finding time to work the last couple weeks, with the girls not wanting to nap at the same time (one falls asleep as the other wakes up!) and taking turns waking up up a couple hours after they go to bed at night. They used to go to bed around 7-8pm and sleep until 11pm or later....now they are waking up at least once between 9-10pm?? Growth spurt maybe? They are almost 6 months and just started cereal so maybe? Hopefully this phase won't last too long!

I have managed to put together a couple of orders with my little bit of "spare time" and make the girls their Halloween costumes. Here are a couple Clippie Holders that have been ordered recently, pictures of the Halloween costumes will come later! I hope to get a good one of all 3 kids together, it's going to be cute!

The girls are having their morning nap right now (at the same time!!) and instead of work I sat down to have a coffee and blog about not having time to work :) 

Have you started thinking about Christmas Shopping? We have a lot of great stuff in the shop for a the little girls on your list!
