Tips

Shrink dink tipsHere are some tips to help you get the best results:

  • Use a fine-tip marker or colored pencil to color in your designs. Bold lines might bleed or smudge.
  • Avoid coloring too close to the edges of your design. The plastic will shrink up to 50%, so you don’t want any of your colors to disappear!
  • Make sure the hole you punch in the top of your design is big enough. It will shrink too, so a small hole might close up completely.
  • Take your time when baking your shrink dinks. Follow the instructions on the package and keep an eye on them as they bake. They’ll curl up and then flatten out again, so you’ll know they’re done when they’re completely flat again.
