football (or any silicone mold you have) crayons

So Stacy at she's {kinda} crafty posted some super cute football crayons. 
I HAD to make them!!

I found the Wilton football mold on Ebay (after looking lots of places).  
Crayons are still pretty cheap so I loaded up!

I removed the paper from the crayons & 
used 5 crayons per 'football' - broken into small pieces. 

*if you are using a different mold, 
you may want to adjust the amount of crayons per shape*
oh..and you can't use the mold for food after you melt crayons - 
just want you to know!!

Preheat your oven to 200degrees.  
Put your mold on a baking sheet and pop it in. 
After ~10 - 15 mins, the crayons will start to melt.  
{I check them several times just to make sure they are all melting}

Once they are totally melted, take them out to cool (in the mold). 
After they've cooled, they should come right out.  

Ta-Da - instant custom crayons.

I plan on putting a few in clear bags & adding a cute ribbon/tag.  
These will be favors for our Housewarming/Football party!


Have a great Tuesday!

What a FAB idea! I love it! So cute! Thanks for the tip by the way. I would've been the dork serving chocolate cupcakes with a hint of waxy crayon. HA!
