Get ready to turn your old crayons into something amazing with this fun DIY layered crayon candles tutorial from Kara Creates! With school wrapping up, now’s the perfect time to sort through leftover supplies. This colorful candle project is a great way to reuse those broken crayons!
Each candle is made by melting crayons with soy wax to create bold, beautiful layers that look just as fun as they are to make. It’s a fantastic rainy day or stuck-at-home activity, especially when the kids need something engaging. You’ll need a soy candle making kit, votive cups, old crayons, disposable cups, extra wicks, essential oils, and a microwave. Add your favorite scents and color combos to make each candle totally your own. These candles are super giftable too. Just tie one with a ribbon and you’re all set. Crafty, creative, and practical – what’s not to love?
