Melted Crayon Art

I have always found that all the melting crayon art was really cool! I've always wanted to try it sometime, but I never really had a good enough reason to do it. So, Brooklyn's birthday was coming up and I came up with a brilliant idea to make one for her. But, I also wanted the one I made to be a little different from the others I saw online. For those who do not know Brooklyn, she likes to wear tu-tus all the time! She also plays the Sousaphone/Tuba.

SO, here is what I did:

I printed a picture off with Brooklyn' whole body.

I printed off a Sousaphone

Then I just cut out a tu-tu from a piece of paper

Put them all together to make it look like a person wearing a tu-tu holding a Sousaphone.

Then I spray painted it black.

Stuck Brooklyn on the heavy-weight poster board and taped over it with tape (so I wouldn't get crayon all over it)

Attached all the blue, purple, green, and gray crayons on top of the board.

THEN, I took a hairdryer and melted the crayons.

This was how it all ended up! Sorry the picture is a little slanted!
