Keely here wishing everyone a happy start to their week. This time of year brings about a lot of reminiscing in our house. When I was a kid one of our family activities was making Shrinky Dink ornaments. We’d sharpen up the colored pencils and get to work while listening to records and chatting away. I’ve recently rediscovered Shrinky Dinks, and they even make a version for your printer now. I’ve made some charms and magnets and I’m in planning mode for our own ornament making night. Today I came across a new fangled fancy tutorial for shrink film ornaments that seems to be made for us digital girls. You can check it out hereYoonie At Home. You can access the Shrink Dink site. I’ve also seen some outstanding shrinky goodness flickr. Whether you need something new to try or want to take a walk down memory lane these are a great craft. The possibilities are endless and there’s not a ton of money or time involved.
