As you can see in the picture I had to trim the paper and cardboard. You can just trim it to any size you want, make sure they are all the same.

Gluing the Canvas

Now you glue all of it together making sure the paper’s on top. Give it time to dry.

Putting on the Crayons

There are two parts to this step, first you will want to put the crayons in a rainbow pattern. Once you have the pattern put the crayons on the top of the canvas with glue.

Melting the Crayons

First put aluminum foil up against the wall and prop the camera up as shown in the picture. Turn the blow dryer on to low speed and hot temperature. Be patient, it won’t melt right away! You can use higher speed to spread the wax

Done!
