Stained glass windows are beautiful works of art. Here a project to bring a little stained glass beauty into your day. Kids, you will need your parents' supervision!

Stained Glass Windows
What You Need:
  • Wax paper
  • Crayons
  • Iron
  • Small pencil or crayon sharpener
Instructions:
  1. Spread out the wax paper on a flat surface.
  2. Use the pencil sharpener to peel off shreds of each crayon onto the wax paper. Use as many different crayons as desired. Too many crayon shreds makes the creation blurry.
  3. Fold the wax paper in half, making sure to keep the crayon shreds inside the layers of wax paper.
  4. With your parent’s help, iron the wax paper on a low setting until the crayon shreds melt together.
  5. Let the wax paper cool
  6. Hold up to a window and watch the light come through as pretty colors!
