Napkin Holder

Why

A colorful Crayola® Crayon napkin holder can be your family's table centerpiece.

Steps

1. Cover your work area with recycled newspaper.

2. Choose the colors of Crayola Crayons and decide how you will arrange them to decorate a flat, plain napkin holder. You might point all the tips up or lay the crayons horizontally across the holder.

3. Lay the napkin holder flat on its side. With Crayola School Glue, attach the crayons to the napkin holder.

4. When the glue on one side is dry, glue crayons to the other side.

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
