For an End of Year Thank You, I created this Crayon initial for my oldest son's two teachers. Both teachers have the same initial, so once I figured the first one out, the second one went together quickly.
I bought one box of 64 count, Crayola crayons for Each initial, thinking that would be plenty. I really should have gotten two 64 count boxes for each. If I would have had two crayons of each of the colors at the top and the bottom of the letter, I could have created a better shaped letter. It's just a little off kilter for me.
But regardless of the odd shaped "S", I think they turned out pretty cool.
When I went to pick my son up from school today, Miss Susan had already hung hers up above her desk in her office. That made me Smile.
I really wanted these two teachers to know how Thankful I am for making this school year for my son, so Very Special.
Doesn't look off-kilter to me, at all! Looks great! Did you go to the free Alan Jackson concert in your neck of the woods?
ReplyDeleteI have been looking and looking for the brave soul who monogrammed an "S" from Crayons! It's a tricky one. Thank you for the visual. It helps. Would you mind sharing a little info and tips on the steps you did on this for such great success? I have seen some cut out a template and lay the crayons over top, and etc.. What did you do?
