Make Some Shrinky Dink Jewelry

So, I’m still stuck on doodles. I can’t help it, I’m just not tired of them yet! Over the weekend, I played around with an Ipad sketch I posted to our family’s sketchbook blog last week. I liked the colors in this one a lot and tried making some shrinky dink jewelry. Super easy and fun!

 

Shrinky Dink Jewelry

I used the Paper 53 app to create the sketch, then took a screenshot image of the finished sketch and imported it into Iphoto. I lightened the colors of the entire image (colors go dark when shrunk), then printed it out onto a sheet of printable shrink plastic sheets.
 
I cut out around the individual flowers, even the ones that ran off the page, and included some of the surrounding blue.

 
Punched a hole in each.

 
Then baked them according to the instructions on the package.

 
Then I had fun making pendants!
 
And charm bracelets (some readers may remember the ones I used to make… I still love charm bracelets)-

 
Make it a great Monday people!
