Do you remember the Valentine craft list? Well on that list was some heart crayons. I LOVED making those crayons last year for my daughter’s preschool party and since we have moved I can do a repeat this year! This weekend we soaked and peeled crayons (Crayola crayons work very well being soaked and peeled because they don’t have glue holding on the papers, Roseart crayons STINK! They glue on the papers so even with soaking it is crazy hard. It is definitely worth the extra money to get the Crayola brand!) and made our hearts.
Once you have your heart silicon mold, fill it 1/3 full with crayons. You need to have enough crayons in each mold to more than fill the bottom of the mold. If the crayon is too thin it will break when you try to remove it.
These darling Valentine’s crayons can be passed out to friends on Valentine’s Day. Put them in a bag and attach this cute “You Color My World” printable, and voila! Done!
Want to make other DIY Valentine’s Day cards?
Cynthia Sheffield says
Really cute! What a great idea. Can you still color with them?
stefanie says
Yes! The fun thing about coloring with them is that they are all rainbowy (I made that word up!) now! We LOVE to color with our swirl heart crayons!
Ashley Vazquez says
Love making these with the kiddos 🙂

M.Clark says
This is a great craft. You don’t necessarily have to make it for Valentine’s Day or make it in the shape of a heart. Thank you for sharing this great craft.
Dinah G says
Love this idea!
Ashley Robertson says
Im definetely going to try this. Is that a plastic pan?
stefanie says
It is a silicon pan. You can find them at crafts stores and I believe even Wal-Mart.

Such a cute and unique idea! Also a thrifty way to get rid of those broken crayons! The kids would think this is so cool!
sania wasif says

michelle rubio says
what do you mean by soaked and peeled? how long is the soak?
Crystal Reeves says
this is a cute idea but how did you get yours to look like the picture you posted? I feel like your holding something back…..
Stefanie says
Nope, if you combine colors in your pan it will look just like mine. I took pictures of every step.
Crystal Reeves says
this is a cute idea but how did you get yours to look like the picture you posted? I feel like your holding something back, can you include that part in the instructions
Suzanne says
These came out great but any tips for cleaning the crayon from the silicone afterwards or are they a one use only?
Stefanie says
I haven’t been able to get the white “waxy” residue off my silicon pan so now my heart pan is only for crayons. I make them every year so I don’t mind that.
Kelly W says
You said it took 6 packs of crayons to make 40 hearts, how many crayons were ion each pack?
Stefanie says
The 24 pack.
