So, if you follow me on twitter, you know that I did a fun crafty DIY for my sister's birthday present. Well, I finally gave it to her and here it is:
I got the idea off from here (Pinterest, of course!). I used Sunflowers because they're my sister's favorite Here's what you'll need:
A Canvas (whatever size you want--Michael's has them!)
Fake Sunflowers-- $8.99 at Walmart
Glue gun
Hair dryer
Crayons- I got the cheapo kind because they're getting melted anyway :)
First, take all the "grassy" colored crayons; greens and yellows, and take off the wrapper.
Line them up along the end of your canvas that you want to be the grass and hot glue them on:
Take a hairdryer and melt the crayons down, however long you want the grass and stems:
Finally, cut your flowers off the stem and hot glue them onto your canvas:
And you're done! You have a creative new piece of wall art! :) It's super easy, but also kind of messy, so make sure you melt the crayons over a trashcan. Also, don't hold the hair dryer too close or you'll end up with melted crayon in your hair next time you use it (trust me...it happens!)
