Product Information

Full details

This guide is for artists and crafters who frequently use a specific shade of violet and want to replenish their supply without buying a full, multi-colored box. The key benefit is getting exactly the color you need in bulk, saving resources and potential waste. A caveat is that these are single-color packs, so they are not suitable for users needing a variety of colors.

FAQs

Can I buy other single colors besides violet?

Yes, Crayola offers 12-count single-color crayon sets in various popular colors to meet specific artistic needs.

Are these crayons non-toxic?

Yes, all Crayola crayons are certified non-toxic, making them safe for artists of all ages.

How do these differ from a standard 24-count box?

A standard box contains a wide assortment of colors, whereas this is a pack containing only 12 crayons of a single specific color (violet).

Can I use these for permanent art projects?

Crayola crayons are designed for coloring and drawing. For permanence, consider sealing artwork with a fixative spray, especially if exposed to elements.

What is the typical lifespan of these crayons?

With proper storage and care, Crayola crayons can last for many years. Their lifespan in use depends on the frequency and intensity of application.

Are these crayons suitable for very young children?

Yes, due to their non-toxic nature and chunky size (compared to pencils), they are generally suitable for young children, with adult supervision recommended for the youngest users.

Troubleshooting

Crayon is broken

While unlikely with careful handling, broken crayons can still be used for coloring. If preferred, you can carefully re-melt small pieces together using a low-heat method (adult supervision required) and reshape.

Color is not vibrant

Ensure you are applying adequate pressure. For lighter shades, try layering the color or using it in conjunction with a lighter shade of violet from another pack.

Crayon is melting

This can happen in high temperatures. Store crayons in a cool environment. If melting occurs, allow them to cool and solidify before attempting to use them.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a specific color in bulk.
  • Economical for frequent users of a single shade.
  • Reduces waste by avoiding unnecessary colors in a full box.
  • Ensures consistent color availability for ongoing projects.
  • Ideal for themed art projects or specific color needs.

Cons

  • Only includes one color, not suitable for general use.
  • Requires knowing precisely which color shade is needed.
  • Not a cost-effective solution for occasional users or those needing variety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

No setup is required. These are ready to use out of the box.

Compatibility:

Crayola Crayons are compatible with most paper types, including construction paper, drawing paper, and cardstock. They can also be used with other Crayola art materials like markers and colored pencils for mixed-media projects.

Care:

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent melting or fading.
  • Cleaning: If crayons get dirty, they can typically be cleaned from non-porous surfaces with mild soap and water. Skin and fabric may require specific cleaners. To clean the crayon itself, use a dry or slightly damp cloth.
