Here is a great gift for a teacher or a child. It was really easy to do and lots of opportunity for younger ones to help out. As long as they are willing to part with a box of
crayons.
There is a really good tutorial at Chic & Cheap Nursery! But I’ll give you a little run down on how I did it. First I laid out the crayon colors in order over the printed letter. That way I knew I would have enough crayons.
From there I cut out the letter and laid it on the cutting board. Using a craft knife I cut each crayon at the angles needed to make an “M”. Each piece was glued into place with a hot glue gun. Maybe don’t use a super hot setting the crayons might melt. Just saying! hahahaha
When the letter is finished you have to frame it. I wanted to use a yellow background because yellow screams CRAYOLA! Add a little text about who it is for and there you have it! What a great teacher gift, don’t you think?
Love this idea! Even for the non-crafty (ah-hem) this is totally do-able. This would be adorable for a baby room.
