What type of crayon works best?

Use standard wax crayons rather than washable ones, as they melt better.

Can I use a hairdryer instead of an iron?

Yes, a hairdryer works, but it may take longer to melt the crayons uniformly.

With proper care, the garland can last for several seasons but should be kept away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
