I have came acrpss many projects that call for "shaved" crayons. Does anybody have any good tips on shaving these things? It seems that it would take a very long time to grate them on a hand held cheese grater. I would love to get a few tips.

I used a veggie peeler It worked well but they are larger shavings

How about a pencil sharpener?

The old Crayon boxes had sharpeners and the shavings used to just be thrown away or they got everywhere....
I agree with Michael
