Craft Of The Day: Shrinky Dink Keychain

Craft Of The Day: Let's Bring Back Shrinky Dinks

As kids, we used to love watching our shrinkable plastic creations curl and unfurl in the oven - it seemed like magic! Turns out that adults can enjoy this mysterious material too. These adorable shrinking plastic keychains are easy and fun to make, just inkjet or draw any designs you want onto shrink films (like these from Dick Blick), cut the designs out, hole punch them, and then bake them in the oven. Hint: For brighter, more saturated colors use white sheets rather than clear ones.
