[challenge entry] I think I've killed her
I can see the desired effect but the crayon chipped off far too easily. :(

The effect was to screw up the picture thoroughly then it was painted with a water-based ready mixed paint.
Leave for 10 minutes then wash off in the shower with a brush.

# I think it's quite effective...
but would perhaps have been even better if the shadows were a smidgen darker... perhaps.

I may be talking pish as a result of DIY and beer.

# I think if I had a black wash paint, it would look much better
It was hard to get things darker as the layers of wax kept coming off.
Maybe I'll do one on better paper.

# A masseev (long) chest of drawers.
I decided that my previous chest of drawers was too small, and directly lead to my clothes covering my floor, or being piled in a basket festering. I am hoping that I will now be able to achieve some sort of order in my room.

I shall reserve my opinion on the absolute likelihood until I've had a try at being organised.

# I can't say I'm the least bit organised.
I have a massive pile of assorted clothes and I have loads of empty drawers.
Good luck though.

# cheers.
If I end up not using the drawers for clothes, I'm considering investing in a UV lamp and some seeds. :)
