{clever} edible crayons

i'm gearing up for back-to-school
and i'm flipping out over these edible crayons!!

at first i thought these were taffy pieces...

nope.

pretzel rods + candy melts = SUPER EASY & SUPER ADORABLE!!

but wait...

you can get the FREE printable labels!

make a whole bunch of them and insert into a plastic pencil box for presentation or gift-giving.

i'm thinking:

back-to-school parties

teacher gifts

crayon themed birthday party

LOVE'em!

KEEPING IT REAL

Hmmmm....how do I adapt these to accomodate my older girls who are both out of grade school?

Let's face it - they won't think it's the least bit cool to bring a teacher a gift in the first place, let alone show up to school with edible crayons. *wink*

Oh the things Ella has to look forward to when she starts school in a few years. (or is it really just ME that's looking forward to being able to do things like this again)?! Yeah. It's me.
