To make a crayon drawing you will need the following materials:

• old, broken crayons
• waxed paper
• iron
• construction paper
• glue
• ribbon or string

1. Carefully cut shavings off of crayons.
2. Sprinkle these shavings between two layers of waxed paper which have been cut into the shape of the Sun.
3. Place a warm iron on the top layer to melt the shavings.
4. Cut a frame out of heavy construction paper or poster board and glue it to the outer edges of the waxed paper, front and back side.
5. Punch a hole into the top of the frame and insert a piece of ribbon or string through it, tie a knot at the end of the ribbon and hang your "stained glass" picture on a hook in front of a window.
