Description:

So since Earth Day is coming up on April 20, I thought why not do a recycling challange swap. For this swap, you will recycle old crayons by melting them down and creating new ones with them. It's a pretty easy concept.

You get a silicone mold (or you can use cupcake tins if you don't have one) and melt crayons that have been broken to bits and had the paper taken off at 250 F in the oven. You can also heat them on a double boiler on the stove if you have one and then pour them into molds, ice trays etc.

You will then send your recycled creations in the mail to your partner with a little note. You need to include at least 5 different colors or color combos.

Here are the requirements:

4.99 or above rating 20+ rated type 3 swaps No late swaps on dash No reputation as a problem swapper

It's senders choice so as soon as you sign up, start making your crayons!

Happy Swapping :)

Sounds fun! For the ‘5 colors’ part, does that mean we need to send 1 crayon with 5 colors or 5 crayons each with different colors? Or does it not matter how many crayons we send, as long as there are 5 colors in there somehow?

You send 5 different crayons. They can be any color or color combination.
