A melton crayon pumpkin is the perfect fall activity. During our girls’ weekend, we decided to decorate pumpkins and we had a blast! It was very easy and the end result was a colorful and unique pumpkin that I could place on my front porch. If you are looking for kids’ fall activity that doesn’t include carving a pumpkin, this is for you.

  • White Pumpkin

Melted Crayon Pumpkin Tutorial

Crayon Pumpkin Idea Instructions

Glue the crayons on near the stem of the pumpkin using Glue Dots or Tacky Glue to keep the crayons in place while you melt them.

Find a blow dryer that gets hot quickly and direct the heat towards each crayon. Be patient as the melting does not happen right away. As a matter of fact, I was worried it wasn’t going to work, but then all of a sudden the crayons started to melt and it was so much fun to watch the color mix and melt together.

Melted Crayon Pumpkins

Tilt the pumpkin to direct the wax to melt around the pumpkin. If you have a friend nearby, recruit them to help you do this so you can focus on blow drying the pumpkin. Watch the short video below if you need a visual on how it works! So incredibly easy and the options are endless when it comes to what colors you choose to melt on your pumpkin.

Melted Crayon Pumpkins

It’s that easy! The hardest part of this Fall project is having the patience to wait for the crayons to melt and dry. It’s definitely worth the wait and the color creations are endless.

Melting crayons can take time, but for a DIY project that is effortless, the end project is unique and beautiful. No melted pumpkin looks the same.

Happy New Year! This year was tough but we are so Happy New Year! This year was tough but we are so thankful for the extra time we spent together as a family. 2020 taught me a lot about myself and what kind of life I want to live right now and once the pandemic is over.  Last year we hosted a party on NYE and I’m sure we opened a portal to this chaos.  This year is much different. Tonight we will most likely be in bed by 10 pm and I am okay with that! We are currently in mismatched jammies at 5 pm. 😜  Cheers to a new year and whatever that will look like! I’m not picking a new word nor am I doing resolutions for the first time in years. I have no expectations but keeping hope alive that things will get better and we can gather and hug once again soon.  Praying for those who are hurting and struggling right now. Things will get better... they simply have to! Let’s go, 2021.
