We value your commitment to recycling products you are no longer using.  

At Crayola, our primary focus is on providing safe, high-quality products. To maintain the standards of safety and performance that our customers expect, we carefully select and screen raw materials for our crayons. Unfortunately, introducing recycled crayon wax into our manufacturing process would compromise these standards.

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.
