My daughter makes the most beautiful drawings with Crayola markers. Can I compost them? Is the ink nasty? There are so many and they can't all go on the wall.... :cry:

Instead of composting them, how about hanging them up, either on the refrig or in her room. When it is time to change them, store them for her until she gets older. Then she can do with tham as she wants.

but if you did want to compost them, it should be fine. those markers are non-toxic so it won't hurt anything. :) hope this helps.

Even with numerous aunts, uncles and grandparents our children produce more drawing than we can unundate them with. I regularly compost our childrens drawings that aren't kept in their binders for memories. :) school art projects often find their way into the pile too.
