Shrinky Dinks!


This week the new March Country Living Magazine arrived and I had to try the Shrinky Dink bracelet!  Here is my creation using vintage buttons and Shrinky Dinks!   The instructions for making are very simple and PDFs templates for printing on Shrinky Dink plastic are included at the Country living web page!  Click on the highlighted  Country Living Craft and this should take you to their page.  You can also order the printer Shrinky Dinks plastic at the online store.   The featured guest in Country Living under idea notebook is Cathe Holden at justsomethingimade.com.    Visit her site for more inspirational ideas.  A great book to get:  Shrink Art Jewelry by Klutz.

Enjoy!   Elaine

  2. Elaine - How fun to find another rug hooking blogger! I think Cathe Holden is SUCH a creative person! About a year ago I got a free pattern from her blog for an iPod cover she had made with leather. Well, I made several using thick felted wool and they turned out so cute! I gave some to friends and they just loved them!
