If you’ve been dreaming about getting a more decorative bookend or something creative for your wall, forget about buying it. This simple tutorial will walk you through the steps of creating a rainbow colored letter.

In the short video tutorial, included below, you’ll learn how to create a letter from crayons. He’s showing you with the letter “L,” but you can choose anything. Perhaps the first letter of your kid’s name?

To get started, cut out your letter on cardboard or something sturdier. Then grab your glue gun and glue one crayon on at a time.

You’ll need an X-Acto knife or a box cutter next. Now cut off the excess crayon to make it line up with your letter of choice.

Now continue gluing the crayons onto your letter. You can use the cut-off pieces to fit the nooks and crannies of the letter.
