Baking broken crayons?

Question

I wanna try this at home, but im worried it will stink up my house. Will it, does it smell at all? For some reason i have always hated the smell of old crayons...yuck!

Answer 1

You know, I can see some sense in this.  If you want to melt your kid's old crayons together to make a wacky new color, then go for it.

Answer 2

why would you bake broken crayons?....

Answer 3

no it just smells like wax not that bad lots of fun for kids

Answer 4

it will have a slight smell

nothing yoiu cant handle

the best thing to do to avoid a huge stink is to do a slow heat say like 225 for just a few min

it wont take them long

and most of hte smell of old crayons is from the paper.

they make coloring fun for the kids and mom.

we do it lots!

Answer 5

have some Oust on hand.  It is a air sanatizer and just use that if it smells.  what a cool idea.  I believe I have seen at Toys r Us a actual crayon melter to make different colors.  it kinda looked like a easy bake oven.  I think Crayola was the company that make it.

Answer 7

Why do you want to bake a crayon? It's part wax substance, so yeah it wouldn't be the best option for a 'pleasant fragrence'. Unless its scented. Then its a ghetto way of using an air freshener in your house.

Go kick some rocks
