31 Home Projects for This Spring That Cost Under $30

27. Melted Crayon Art

Perfect for a rainy spring afternoon, Decoist’s DIY melted crayon wall art is a project that’s fun for all ages. Arrange new crayons at the top of a clean art canvas, tips pointing down, or in any pattern you prefer. Hot-glue the crayons to the canvas one at a time.

Once the glue dries, set the canvas on a plastic tarp and aim a hair dryer set to hot at the crayons until they begin to melt. Feel free to angle the canvas different ways to achieve the desired drip effect.

The total estimated cost for melted crayon art is $17.08. Here’s what you’ll need:

120 crayons: $7.18
Three-pack art canvas: $7.08
Tarp: $2.82
