LeighMo's bit of heaven (or hell)

This is my life. Seriously.

one heck of a good time!

Not like that.

Little M and I made us some "scrap crayons". Now, for those of you who didn't go to daycare centers that offered new, shiny, pointy-tipped crayolas for budding creative geniuses, allow me to enlighten.

One takes broken, dull, and otherwise over looked crayon refuse and melts them down. *remove paper first* Then, allow to cool. And presto, chango, you have new, psychedelic, chunky color chunks.

I admit, our first batch doesn't resemble the ones I was forced to use as a child I recall, but is life not an experiment, a procedure of trial and errors, by which we learn what does and does not work?

We had fun, recycled some otherwise useless crap, and I had something with which I could bribe her to get my work done (Murphy's Law: child will be grounded from all electronics, outdoor play, and anything else she may enjoy on the one day I actually have paying work.)

Without further adieu, here are our "bullet crayons":

These are really cool art supplies. I especially dig the silver and red crayon. I'm a sucker for shiny things.
