Summer Season: Crayon Melting Art Project

Crayon Melting is a super fun and easy activity which can be completed with just a few household items and a canvas. The only supplies you need are crayons, a hot glue gun, a blow dryer, and whatever size canvas you decide to use.















 To start:
1. For the best look I recommend taking off the wrappers of the crayons, but whether or not you do does not effect the melting of the crayon. After you decide, use your hot glue gun to secure your crayons onto your canvas.

2. Simply start melting the crayons with the blow dryer. The wax will start to run down the canvas creating your beautiful piece of art.

3. Let the wax harden and then you have a hand made masterpiece from house hold items. Have fun with this art project!

Spring Season: Favorite Sites for Fashion and Art

There are so many great sites to create and see fashion. Below are some of my favorite sites that I would like to share.

1. Polyvore
This site is so amazing for harnessing your creative side and making something beautiful from it. Basically it gives you a blank box were you can put any images in it. With the images you pick you can edit them. To make you project more exciting you an also add text, or shapes.

2. Pinterest
With this site, you can create boards and "pin" things onto them. You can search for anything from dogs and food to colors and quotes. I love using this because you can see your friends' boards and you can even invite them to pin on your board. You can follow other peoples' boards if you like them. You can even follow my blog on Pinterest!

3. Dexigner

Go to the directory to start browsing for inspiration and news on all types of things, including fashion. You can search from many subjects. Also, you can search for more art and fashion blogs.

4. I Need A Guide
Describing itself as "Art and Contemporary Imagery" it is a really interesting site if you like abstract art. It is full of pictures that are fascinating. I recommend this site if you like looking at art in a different way or want to try something new. Try to be inspired and think about every picture differently.

Winter Art: Record Collage

Do you ever need something to do on a rainy day? All you need is a poster board, a glue gun, and some record album covers with a record. This is a very easy project and a fantastic creative outlet. Just cut out the covers' titles or pictures and arrange them into a collage, whatever looks good to you. After you cut out your pieces hot glue them to the poster board. You can place the record in the middle or place it off center, whatever fits your style. Have fun!
