I have a love/hate. Now I use a dot of hot glue in the corners. This seems to work best an not be so permanent that parents could not remove the mat if need be. Hope that helps :)cassie stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09850034034580646768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781163151779948787.post-15101502793249114102016-03-04T20:49:02.856-08:002016-03-04T20:49:02.856-08:00Random question - what adhesive do you use to mat ...Random question - what adhesive do you use to mat your artwork?

As a teacher who lives overseas (literally, I teach on a ship... Yes, really. :) I so rarely get rid of stuff. I mean, it can take 6 months for us to get supplies. Here is my solution: I recycle my crayons and make neat-o multicolored ones! Basically, just take any old broken crayons, take the paper off (I enlist my minions and we play 'crayon factory'), put a variety of broken crayon pieces in a muffin tin (if you want to re-use said muffin tin for food, I would recommend putting in paper liners first) and pop the tray into the oven. It only takes about 5 minutes for the wax to melt, so keep an eye on them, but they cool quickly and pop out easily and now you have cool, round, multicolored crayons! <br />Just as a warning, though, your house/classroom will smell like melted wax for a few hours. :) <br />I love your blog, by the way- I regularly steal ideas for projects!
