New crayons! No smell like that in the world! I used to be given the 16-count box, a few times the 48, but heaven, absolute heaven, was the 64 and a coloring book with lots of pictures of princesses. Sigh.
lol. my 15 year old just bought herself a box of 64 at the grocery store two days ago. i told her that i would buy her some beeswax ones online instead, and she said no, because she liked the smell and it gave her good memories ;o) The sense of smell is a very powerful thing!!
I know this has been done for children, but if you're ever planning an event for adults that's not ultra-fancy and you need an ice-breaker, cover the tablecloths with long, white paper and put boxes of crayons at intervals down them. Adults love to color. They'll love the excuse.

Agreed! Coloring is one of the greatest de-stressors.
