we {heart} crayola.

What screams going to school and coloring more than Crayola? We are huge fans of Crayola crayons at our house...just ask Auntie Jill who took on the task of down sizing Van's out of control crayon box this past weekend. =)

Even though Van has plenty of crayons, she never has enough markers. We could buy her a new pack every weekend, because this girl likes to ink up everything. I adore all my notes, pictures, and art work so I wouldn't have it any other way.

While shopping for Van's school supplies I saw these black barrelled markers that were made from Crayola, I wondered why the change. Turns out they are making their mark by going green. When they use black plastic they can use more recycled plastic products. Who knew that black would be the new "green"!? Pretty awesome eh? I know it makes me wanna buy Crayola that much more.
What is your favorite Crayola product?

We were provided with this product to review from Crayola through My Blog Spark.

My favorite was those twist-top crayons that you never have to sharpen. Love those. But I have to say, nothing beats a brand new set of 64 crayons, color organized in a pretty box!

(PS that pic of Van with a faux hawk is so adorable!)

I love crayola too - their product is so much better than other brands. I was a little shocked when I saw the black markers too, but I love the idea.
My favorite Crayola product is model magic, you can do so much with it

I love the smell of a newly opened box of crayons! It's my favorite!!! And, I'll admit, you can find me coloring in my daughter's coloring books every now and then!!

I was wondering about the black markers also. Good to know it's for good reason!

My Mattie loves markers like Van. We go through many. And our crayon box is out of control. For church, I love the twist top pencils. Keeps things easy. Other then that, I haven't met a Crayola product I didn't like.

I am a Crayola snob. I seriously won't buy any crayons or markers but Crayola. I love back-to-school time when the markers are on sale because I buy boxes and boxes of them! I have a marker bucket that's filled with just Crayola. I'm such a little kid. :)

That it so cool that Crayola is going green! I just bought more Crayola markers but haven't opened them. I wonder if they are the black barrel ones.
