HOW TO
MAKE A REALLY COOL SUNCATCHER
By: jhansi, 13, (aka x-twilight-x)
Want
a really sun catcher for your room that’s easy to
make? Well here’s how you can make one:
First get some baking paper and lay it on a
baking tray*. Get some old wax crayons (whatever
color, you can even use glitter or metallic crayons)
and start grating* them so they are all shaved up.
You can use all your colors or only use a few colors
that look really good together. Instead of letting
the shaved crayon fall where you grate it you can
put it in a cool design like a rainbow swirl.
Whatever you like. When you’re done and you like
your design put another sheet on top (be careful,
you don’t want to ruin your design!) and pop it in
the oven for a couple of minutes*. You’re just doing
this so that the wax can melt a little bit and join
together. Get your mom to help you. After that take
it out of the oven and let it cool and then put it
in the fridge or freezer. When you take it out peel
of the baking paper (if you have trouble just use a
bit of oil to get it off) and make a small hole at
the top*. Thread some cool string on it and then Ta
DA. You have an awesome sun catcher.
*Make sure you tell you're mom what you are doing
and get her approval. You might also like her to
help out and make sure your safe.
P.S. if you want you can super glue diamonds or
other cool stuff onto your sun catcher after baking.
