Melted Crayon Jars
These jars are both pretty and useful containers for such things as flowers, pencils, and odds and ends. They are fun and easy to make and each one is different. Remember to keep your finished jars out of direct sunlight or the crayons will melt again.

Stained Glass Windows
This terrific craft can be done by the smallest 4 year old crafter.   You'll encase the flat objects and crayon shavings in waxed paper, iron it, and then hang your masterpiece from a window! This is an easy way to make pretend stained glass.

interview and FREE craft idea
Carolyn Homes the author of Everyday Art For Kids has always been surrounded by art.  Her mother created an atmosphere that encouraged and nurtured Carolyn and her siblings to be  creative and imaginative. In addition to making art from ordinary objects, like a used box, Carolyn also was busy writing stories and poems as well. She found that even the most self-confident parent was a bit unsure of themselves when it came to art. This propelled Carolyn to create a tremendous resource for both parents and children so that they could do any project successfully, that they desired. This provided the foundation for her book Everyday Art For kids.
