Crafts for Kids – I loved Shrinky Dinks when I was a kid and now I know how to make my own with my grandkids, thanks to Curbly.com!!
Here is what you will need:
Clean #6 Plastic
Permanent Markers
Scissors
Aluminum Foil
Oven and Tongs or Oven Mitt
1. Obtain a piece of #6 plastic (polystyrene). Most clear containers at salad bars, delis, and grocery stores will work. Just flip it over and look for a “6” inside the recycling arrows. If you ask nicely, they’ll usually give you a fresh one.
2. Cut any excess plastic away to make a flat sheet (use both the top and the bottom), and recycle the excess.
To read the rest of the directions for this project, please visit the Curbly.com website!!
These are so cool and can be made into necklaces, ornaments and more! They will shrink and become thick!!
