crayon hearts

i've been experimenting with making crayon hearts. for some reason of all the shapes out there, i can't seem to find heart shaped candy molds. i read about making them with cookie cutters placing it on aluminum foil. well, i tried and ended up with a hot mess.


all the wax just seeped out the side leaving me with a puddle of wax.
imagine my joy when i found these at goodwill for $1 for the set of 4

i'm only going to use one for crayons and save the rest for making cute little mini cakes and other adorable heart shaped deserts.
here's the tin loaded up with 8 broken up crayons.
and, the finished product
not sure how i feel since they ended up about 3/4" deep, but i think the lines of these will make them easy to color with.

What a great idea! With a toddler in the house, I can't tell you how many broken crayons I have laying around. This is perfect!

Thanks for stopping by on my SITS day! Come back any time!
