Rubbings – Creating with Cardboard

 
Sticky Lemon – Crayons

Sticky Lemon – Crayons

 
 

Cardboard. Inexpensive, plentiful and for some reason, fascinating for every child…ever. As we turn to the internet for our daily needs, boxes are bound to take over our kitchens and recycling bins. Gather your materials and save your cardboard (and sanity): Here is a creative way to transform this commonplace material into something beautiful. 

Rubbings

Explore texture and pattern with just three materials. 

1. Collect your crayons and pastels! Sticky Lemon’s crayons are our favorite to use for this project.

2. Place a piece of cardboard on a flat surface, put a piece of printer paper on top, and use the side of a crayon to make a rubbing. Layer colors and use corrugated cardboard for extra texture!
