While the marker barrel and cap are recyclable, not all parts of the marker are. Because the marker components are securely sealed during the manufacturing process, we don’t recommend trying to remove the marker nib and reservoir. The marker caps can be recycled at facilities that accept #5 plastic. 

Crayola offers an innovative program called ColorCycle that converts old markers into energy as well as wax compounds for asphalt and roofing shingles. The process repurposes the entire marker, regardless of the different kinds of plastics or how they are assembled. You can learn more about this program and all of Crayola’s other environmental initiatives at www​.cray​ola​.com/​c​o​l​o​r​cycle.

Crayola manufactures Crayola Window Markers which are designed specifically for window decorating. If you’re unable to locate either of these products, Take Note! Dry Erase Markers or Crayola Washable Paint can be a fun alternative. Pro Tips for Washable Paint: For the perfect mixture, add equal parts Crayola Washable Paint and dish soap. Add a pinch of flour to make the paint thicker. Don’t forget to protect the area under your window by laying down an old T‑shirt. Painting can be done on the inside or the outside of your window. Because soap is used in the paint, your designs will wipe off windows with a wet paper towel. You can follow up with window cleaner for extra shine.

Spray the window with glass/​window cleaner as you would to wash the window. Then, follow-up with a quick wipe by using a dry towel. You could also use a water-dampened towel and follow-up by wiping with a dry towel. WETTING THE AREA WITHOUT USING A DRY CLOTH WILL SMEAR AND SPREAD THE RESIDUE RATHER THAN REMOVE IT.

Crayola did not invent the crayon. Records show that Europe was the birthplace of the ​“modern” crayon. The first crayons were made from a mixture of charcoal and oil. Later, powdered pigments of various hues replaced the charcoal. It was discovered that substituting wax for the oil in the mixture made the sticks sturdier and easier to handle. Crayola Crayons were invented by Binney & Smith in 1902 and first offered for sale in 1903. Alice (Stead) Binney, a school teacher and wife of co-founder Edwin Binney, suggested the company manufacture an inexpensive alternative to imported crayons of that era. The trade name Crayola was coined by Mrs. Edwin Binney who joined the French word ​“craie,” meaning stick of chalk and ​“ola” from the word ​“oleaginous,” meaning oily. Crayola Crayons are made primarily from paraffin wax and colour pigment. The Crayola brand celebrated its 100th anniversary during 2003 and today we manufacture over 3 billion crayons each year.

Our experts have a few tips to help your creativity bloom with the Crayola Paper Flower Science Kit. 

For Best Results: 

  • Protect clothing & work surface before starting. 
  • Wipe water and ink spills immediately. 

Cleaning Tips:

  • Rinse and dry all pots, covers, funnels and watering can. 
  • Recap ink bottles and markers. 
  • Wipe away any spills from work surfaces. 

Looking for refills? 

  • Need another bouquet? White coffee filters – they are the perfect alternative to paper petals because they mimic the wicking process of the ink into the paper. 
  • Have left over ink? To make your creativity bloom again, rinse the used cores and tips under running water to clean up as much of the ink as possible. Just be sure to wipe up any ink right away and let the cores and tips dry thoroughly. We’ve found this craft hack works best when the ink is fresh and hasn’t had too much time to set.
