Crayola Brings Back 8 Retired Crayon Colors in Limited Edition Packs

For the first time in its 122-year history, Crayola is reintroducing fan-favorite shades, including Dandelion, in special editions available throughout 2025.

  • Crayola is re-releasing eight retired crayon colors, including Dandelion, Blizzard Blue, Magic Mint, and Mulberry, for a limited time in 2025.
  • The retired shades will be available as crayons, colored pencils, and markers in Limited Edition packs at major retailers like Target, Walmart, and Staples.
  • The decision follows significant fan demand, particularly for the Dandelion shade, which was retired in 2017 and has since gained a devoted following.
  • The limited-edition products will include activity kits, themed coloring books, and collaborations with brands like Lee and S'well, with releases planned for key moments like back-to-school and holidays.
  • Crayola aims to celebrate creativity and nostalgia, with the campaign inspired by its original eight-crayon box launched in 1903.
