Free Fun Friday +

Another classic, but I had to look up the “how to” on this one!  We have tons of tiny broken crayons that I’ve been saving because I had a faint memory of making something cool with them ages ago.  As it turns out, there’s plenty of cool things to do with them!  Like making crayon “muffins”- spray your muffin cups with non-stick spray, half-fill them with crayon pieces, then heat in a 200 degree oven for a little less than 10 minutes.  Let them cool for about an hour and voila!  Fun new crayons!  You can also try heating your crayon shavings in a microwave-safe bowl on high for about 5 minutes, then pour the wax into some fun candy molds (like these frogs!) Then throw them in the freezer for about 30 minutes.  Voila- frog crayons!

Okay, I just couldn’t let this one go without sharing it.  Loyal TotBargainers may be familiar with my BundleMe love affair (similar to my stroller love affair, but a little more seasonal.)  Anyhow, the Urban BundleMe, a fancier version of the regular BundleMe, is originally $50 and really hardly ever on sale.  If you’re expecting a fall/winter baby, definitely get in on this deal- Amazon has the Soho color on sale for $19.11, 62% off!  Thanks for finding this one, PapaBargain!
