Our recipe says to use beeswax, it isnt brittle it comes out nicely. That color looks so nice!

This is great! Lovely to see the different results and that you even got a nice sort of a crayon, even if by accident

Love watching your process!

Thank you for documenting your experiments. They look quite yummy

Very interesting. Love watching 😊❤

That was awesome!

Sorry if you know this, but: Oil pastels are made with a non-drying oil, not with the drying oils used to make oil paint. Your 'pastels' are actually oil sticks, they will either dry hard, or will develop a thin film that needs to be repeatedly scraped off in order to use. To make true oil pastels, you'll need a different oil -- originally coconut oil was used, but nowadays they're made with mineral oil. You could technically use a variety of vegetable oils, but you have to watch they don't go rancid or cause damage to the paper. The only other ones I'd try, personally, would be castor oil or jojoba oil.

I rather buy than make my own
