How to Make Heart Mold Crayon Valentines

Step 1:  You can find these silicone heart molds at a variety of places: any craft shop, the dollar tree, etc. If it’s a large size, you’ll need to cut it to fit into your microwave. Make sure to place it on a microwave-safe plate.

Step 2:  Peel the crayons and set them aside. PRO TIP: They are SO much easier to peel if you soak them in water first!

Step 3:  Break them into pieces. Fourths seem to be the best size to fill the mold!

Step 4:  Fill the mold with the crayons.  Fill them all the way to the top and use any desired color combinations.

Step 5:  Microwave for about 5 minutes.  You want most of the crayons to be melted into liquid but if you have a few crayons that are still chunky, that’s ok. Your time may vary depending on the size of the mold and age of the crayons.

Step 6:  Let them sit until they are cooled and hardened. PRO TIP: Placing them in the freezer for about 20 minutes will speed things up!

Step 7:  Break them out of the mold and attach them to your valentines with a glue dot, or you can put them in a cute baggie and tie the card to the bag.
