Taking it further

1. The soil create the color of the crayon. Find a substitute to it to produce another color.

2. Instead of soap, try using detergent powder and see the difference.

1. Put margarine, soap, candle and soil into the empty can.

2. Put the can into the bowl with hot water about 90 degrees Celsius to dissolve the materials inside the can.

3. When the materials are already dissolved, mix it and transfer to the tube with rubber eraser on its bottom.

4. Wait until the mixture is already hard. With the use of pencil, slowly push it until it came out on the tube.

5. Now you have crayon! Use it to draw in a paper.
