Shrink Plastic Kit

I was sceptical about this and thought it would be a waste of money. I was pleasantly surprised though, the kit is good quality and it actually works!!! My daughter had great fun making keyrings and badges and it contains everything you need (although I'd recommend you buy some Sharpie markers).

This shrink plastic kit is great - best I've found so far. Comes with loads of jump rings, keyrings and earring extras as well as the sheets. Sheets are easy to use and the instructions pretty much cover all you need to do (draw/colour on the sanded side; put in oven at specified temperature, flatten with something if needed). This is my go-to for when I need to restock shrink plastic (just be careful to buy the sanded/rough ones like these and NOT the clear version as that does not work the same).

This item is easy to use, so kids could definitely use it to create little charms etc however it is difficult to perfect, any little marks in you colours will be magnified when it shrinks so it is difficult to make something flawless. However, It is very fun to use and I will most likely be repurchasing this product. I would say however you could probably find this product cheaper somewhere else, and the little key rings etc are not the best quality so if you were serious about making them you may want to purchase the key ring rings elsewhere. But overall I would say this is a good product as it is straightforward, comes with simple instructions and is something that is enjoyable for all ages and advancements of artists.

We bought these for my 4 year old to make Christmas presents with. I really liked that it came with absolutely everything you need, and all the instructions. We only made keyrings so I can’t comment on the other accessories but we had no issues. The only downside we found, was it was easy to leave a fingerprint on and then they were visible when you ‘baked’ it. Overall though, a fun little craft and my daughter loved the ‘magic’ of them shrinking.

This pack is a great value for money pack. Lots of friends have bought as result of my purchase! Easy to draw or paint (acrylic worked well) onto. Can cut into smaller sizes, and within a minute in the oven shrink and become solid. We’ve had great fun during lockdown with these. We’ve made gifts for parents and grandparents, and incorporated into home school things too.

Fast delivery looks good haven’t used yet as a Xmas present

Bought as an Xmas stocking filler for daughter. Not used yet but hopefully she will like them.

Excellent fun! Good quality and the shrinkydinks all worked perfectly. Loads of stuff in the box and all really good quality - amazing for the price! The instructions say that permanent markers are good but we found they smudged so best to stick to coloured pencils which also results in more vibrant colours...

Tout est parfait . Je m amuse

I found these as a wet-weather activity to entertain my 5 year old and she loved it. The pack was great, came with everything we needed. Each sheet has a frosted and clear side, the frosted side works best for drawing on. We tested a few materials, sharpie for the outline and coloured pencil with a bit of mod podge to seal worked a treat. Some of the larger shapes do bend and curl too much if you use one page for a single design, but we found we could put about 3-5+ small designs per page and they worked really well. Some of the other products on Amazon had bad reviews or gripes about no instructions etc but this kit was good value.

EDIT: I tried fineliner pens, it smudged everywhere and bled on the page, smudging even after being baked. Granted, it was water-based so I half expected this to happen, I'm sure sharpie or other oil-based fineliners will work great. I also tried a heart shaped cut out with a smaller heart cut into it. That didn't work because the thinner part curled and stuck to the other side during baking (this didn't happen with a smaller keychain hole), so I took it out and manually fixed it, put it back in the oven thinking it would fix itself. It did, until I took it out and attempted to remove from the pan and it curled back up and now it is mishapen and will not fix itself. So word of advice if you plan on cutting in shapes within the drawing - don't make it too big! I stand by my 5 star review if used and baked correctly. --- ORIGINAL REVIEW: I had the problem of that one star review at first. It curled and I couldn't put a heavy book on top of it fast enough to flatten it. Little did I know, these things are SUPPOSED to curl and then they magically flatten out! I panicked when I saw it curl and took it out too early, but DON'T PANIC! Leave them in there for a few more seconds and they flatten out. Once it goes flat, take it out and let it cool for a bit before you mess with it. I even put the first failed attempt back into the oven and it flattened itself - that was after it had completely cooled and hardened! I didn't even have to put a book on top. I did a drawing about 5-6" tall (almost the entire page) and it shrunk to about 2" tall, perfect keychain size. A regular hole puncher shrinks down to perfect keychain hole size. I used prismacolour pencils and it looks great. It does feel like it will smudge so I will probably put a layer of epoxy resin on top at some point. I will edit my review if I do that (also when I try out fineliner markers on them) to let you all know how that goes. So tldr: Don't take it out of the oven before it goes flat, and even if you take it out too early you can just put it right back to fix it! Just keep watching it and you'll know when it's done.
