Recycled Winter Holiday Crayon Shapes. Set of 4

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 17:57:22 -0500

$7.00
You will receive a set of four recycled crayons in cool winter holiday shapes, and in the colors pictured above. Boxed up in a recycled card box and nestled in shredded junk mail! (with a couple of little extras thrown in!) They are perfect for tying on top of gifts, dropping in stockings, passing out to school pals, or coloring pictures!

My son Emery and I pick up orphaned crayons at local restaurants and we recycle them into fun! Very eco-friendly, and a great lesson to teach children. These are made from the Crayola crayons that we collect. They color beautifully, a mixture of the two or three colors used in each shape.

These are handmade by me, so they may have very slight imperfections here & there. The colors will vary a bit as well, depending on how they melt. The average measurement is about 3" long and about 1 1/2" wide.

Thanks for looking! Please let me know if you would like more than one set, I'll be happy to create a custom listing for you!

I can also take requests for colors, if we have come across them. And we are happy to combine shipping on multiple orders.
