My friends Katie & Phil have opened a new craft shop called Thread & Heather near our house, so I decided to make them a little gift using the supplies from my first shopping spree.

Description

My friends Katie & Phil have opened a new craft shop called Thread & Heather near our house, so I decided to make them a little gift using the supplies from my first shopping spree.

Instructions

  1. Small 109795 2f2015 07 07 214758 img 0016

    Gather your supplies.

  2. Small 109795 2f2015 07 07 214808 img 0017

    Because I'm using a mini canvas, I had to cut the crayons in half.

  3. Small 109795 2f2015 07 07 214836 img 0018

    I then started glueing the crayons to the top of the canvas with my trusty glue gun.

    Keep glueing the crayons on until you've covered the length of the canvas.

  5. Small 109795 2f2015 07 07 214932 img 0218

    When you're ready, hold your heat gun about 5 inches from your canvas and start melting those crayons.

    Melt away until you're happy with the design.

    I scratched out some words with the end of a pen in my design but you could draw a picture or write your name.
