    Take some wax crayons, a foil takeaway container, a pair of tongs and a sharp knife.

    Use the knife to scrape some shavings from one of the wax crayons into the takeaway container (don’t use more than one colour or you’ll end up with a muddy brown colour!). Holding the takeaway container with the tongs, carefully heat the container on the cooker until the wax melts (it only takes a few seconds).

    Remove the container from the heat and drip the melted wax onto your paper. Repeat in different colours until you are happy with the result!

    The wax has a lovely soft feel to it. I may go back to it later and try scratching a pattern into it 🙂
