How To: Make DIY Shrinky Dinks

I know it sounds weird, but over the holidays, I needed to use Shrinky Dinks for one of my gifts. See, I got my sweetheart a vacation, but you can’t really wrap that up and put it under the tree. Plus, even if I put the travel arrangements in a box, that’s only one gift, and not how I do things.

So, I came up with a series of clues and hints to slowly unveil what the ultimate present would be. Anyway, for one of them, I needed to make a Shrinky Dink.

I actually know how to make Shrinky Dinks, cause my science teacher parents always made us make our own instead of getting the cool California Raisin or Thundercats ones from the store. Which was pretty annoying when I was a kid, but kinda sweet now.

Anyway, I wrote up this tutorial a few years ago for Curbly, and thought I’d share it here to you very fine people, as well.
