Rollin' in Color

Crayon Roll Black Stripe                                                              Crayon Roll Turquoise Dot

Ahhhh! Color!

I've always enjoyed it.

Can you remember the smell of a fresh box of crayons?

And the crisp edges on the tip of your never before used crayon?

Sometimes I didn't want to ruin them by using them.

But I never could resist for very long.

And when I did use them I just had to roll them every few strokes so that the crayon would wear evenly.

Did you do that?

AND

My favorite part of coloring was showing my mom what I was in the process of doing or had just finished.

BECAUSE

I just knew she'd love it.

Because she loved me

and it was part of me.

Crayons remind me of my mom.

So,

I'm a sucker for a new box of crayons for my kids....

pretty much every time they ask for one they get it.

That's how I roll.

I decided to make a couple of crayon rolls for my two youngest kiddos.

(just the youngest two because I didn't think the one teen and two preteens would appreciate or use a crayon roll)

AND my childlings think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I've had quite a few people out and about at church, doctor's office, etc. ask about them so I decided to make a couple for the shop.

I'll be adding more but for now there are just two.

And I'm in love with all of that fun color.

And of course I showed my mom......

BECAUSE

I just knew she'd love them...

because she loves me....
...that's how she rolls....
