Directions-<\/u><\/p>\n
•Cut 2 pieces of waxed paper exactly the same size. Choose any size that you will want your masterpiece to be. Just be sure to cut them to be matching shapes. Collect the flat things that you want to encase in the waxed paper. Put one piece of the waxed paper on a flat surface. Arrange the objects on the paper. Add crayon shavings for a color accents (these will melt later on). The easiest way to get crayon shavings is by using a crayon sharpener. Then get an adult to do the next step-<\/em><\/p>\n •Put a few layers of newspaper on your ironing board. Put the waxed paper artwork on top of this. Put the second piece of waxed paper on top of the artwork. Carefully put a few layer of newspapers on top of the whole thing. Now iron it on medium heat, checking it frequently to make sure it is not burning. Stop ironing when the waxed paper layers are stuck together and the crayon shavings are melted. Be sure that you leave a rim of waxed paper around the edges without any fillings. When the artwork has cooled off, trim the edges carefully; using pinking shears on the edges can look nice. Be sure that you do not trim right near any of the fillings. If there any unsealed parts, patch them with some transparent tape. Punch a hole near the top for hanging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
