So I got some shrinky dink paper and I am trying to think of what to make with it, I feel like I want to make a bunch of charms or pins with it but I need ideas. I want to try to get the most out of each sheet of the special paper so I am trying to draw on a regular sheet of paper and try to fill in the whole thing so I can utilize as much of the area as possible.

Have an idea you want to see get shrunky dunked let me know, I'll try to do some of them and then I'll post the turn out! (Maybe I'll make a video of them shrinking!)

Things like:
-Animals
-flowers/plants
-sayings that would be cute on pins
-candies
-dank memes
-foods
-spoopy things

So far I've got a sketch of some mean candy hearts, a pizza, a donut, a candy corn, a planchette and a pin that has a mermaid tail and says mer-babe. ^u^
 
May I ask, what exactly is one of these? xD

Shrinky dinks were popular in the 90s its a little craft where you take these special plastic sheets, color on them and cut them out, then stick it in the oven and the pliable thin paper shrinks and makes it into a thicker plastic piece. People make jewelry and pins and all sorts of stuff. It's super fun.

Ohh thanks for explaining
Sounds pretty cool actually :eek:
 
I totally printed out some neko atsume cats to making into shrinky dinks. I also have the pokeball and watermelon traced onto the paper now and a few jars with liquid in them to look like potions, a ghost, some cats, a shark, a cactus. Still looking for more ideas!

I second this c:

I am totally going to make a Pepe. I still have to take a pic of the rest of the things I made, I am going to make some of them into pins and make the rest into little charms. And I have to figure out how to seal them cause I tried to but a white layer on the back of the pyramid neko-atsume cat (I rename them so I forget his OG name) and he like bled out into the paint and made a big mess so I'll have to re-make him. =[ And the doughnut cats I made got all warped so I am going to give them a second go too.
 
Also, I totally forgot how much shrinky dinks shrink, so like a lot of the things I made are mad tiny! I thought they shrank like 50% but it's more like 75/80%. Also I'll have to try to post the video of when I shrunk them, my boyfriend was so excited it was the firs time he'd seen them!
