DIY: Crayon Monogram

I came across this super cute idea on http://www.chiccheapnursery.com  Check them out for other fun & unique ideas!

How cute is this crayon monogram? This is a great idea for a playroom, classroom, nursery or a gift for your favorite teacher!

It’s a very simple Do It Yourself project.

Print your letter out on a scrap piece of paper.
Arrange crayons over letter.
Cut crayons individually to length using a sharp knife and cutting board.*
Glue crayon pieces together using a glue gun.
Then glue the crayon letter to a nice piece of stiff paper.
Frame.

*Hint: When you’re making the straight cuts it helps to roll the crayon under your knife to score it all the way around, then it just snaps in the center leaving a cleaner cut. Unfortunately it doesn’t work with the slanted cuts.

Have fun with the kiddos this summer & get crafty!
