I’ve been looking for the crayons I love to get for using in our Art Program (haven’t bought them for a very long time) and finally started looking online when I couldn’t find them in any brick stores. The manufacturers website doesn’t list them as discontinued, but there is talk of it on some other sites and hardly anyone has any stock of them, I found some 8-color, 24-color boxes on some seller websites, but found that they were ALL Canadian sites. I did find another product that I need to look into, Crayon Rocks. More for younger people. I have also seen that someone (or more) make Beeswax crayons. I’ve also thought of finding resources and making my own and actually marketing them eventually.

Art products
I bought an art program, via my homeschool coop (which is online) which is an online program itself. There is a list of products to buy to use for the program, but going to Michaels produced only a couple of things, and not the brand names asked for, and going to Staples, Target and Office Max turned up only one more thing (at the latter) and therefore I cannot start the program until I can get the other things.
Premiere on the list is PRANG crayons. I know what these are and there are NO substitutes for PRANG crayons. I have used them in the past, but currently have none. I firstly found them years ago in a Staples, have seen them nowhere else, but now that I wanted to get a new set for my own personal use (I love to color in coloring books still …) as well as get small boxes for each child in this art program, I can find no brick store carrying PRANG crayons.
So I’ll have to go online and find an online store that has everything I need, and next time I need a bunch of art stuff, that’s the only way I’ll do it. Lesson learned, wasted energy of my own and gasoline, time and frustration brought to naught.
