About this deal

It seemed like they were everywhere when I was a kid, but over the years have become harder and harder to find. These DIY shrinky dinks work just the same way. Let’s see what you need to get started. Shrinky Dinks Plastic Remember to make sure you punch a hole in your item BEFORE you shrink it if you want it to have a hole in the end. I used to forget that as a kid. I’m sure you could drill a hole, but punching before is far simpler. It won’t take very long for them to shrink up, only about 2 to 3 minutes, so I DO NOT recommend walking away from your oven.

I stink at freehand cutting, but if you are creative with that or have some large punches, you can cut out your own shapes as I did here. You’ll get a much better result using a permanent marker on the plastic than any other type of medium.Be super careful, since they’ll be hot. You’ll want to let the cool for a few minutes before trying to handle them.

The lid that came with it was mainly a nice, flat piece of #6 plastic.

The next thing you need to decide is what kind of medium you will use to decorate them. Sharpies work great, but who wants to let their kids loose with sharpies? If that’s you, go for it! But for me, I need a less permanent option. Tiny designs have more possibility of the sides touching each other when they curl up in the heat. So keep this in mind when drawing. Have you made DIY Shrinky Dinks? What did you do with them? I’d love to hear the answers in the comments! As I said above, you’re likely to find #6 plastic that can be used for DIY Shrinky Dinks in take out containers.Now for the fun! You can draw whatever you want. You can even trace designs since the plastic is clear. If you plan to make it into a charm, it’s a good idea to use a hole puncher to put a hole in the plastic before you shrink it.
