    Hello again! I posted my quick hello but had to say how great it is to see so many people colouring! Hmm. I was just thinking… If unscented mineral spirits melts the wax in pencil crayons, would it work on normal crayons also? I feel an experiment coming on! I wonder if I have crayons in the house?
