February 22, 2013, Rycyled products fun tutorial


From those things we always toss in the trash below.
 The kind food comes in from the bakery
mostly



To this below:
Did you know it shrinks like Aileens shrink-it?



Some work, some recycled product do not, I find the plastic boxes with the most crinkle do. Test them. Oven at 250°, it will have to shrink all the way so about 10 min, set a timer or watch the clock.
Do a test bake with a small  1" square, make sure it shrinks and see how much. Mine shrink to about 60% of size. 

To the left are made from a butterfly and dragonfly punch out. 
paint and glitter before baking, let the paint dry. Quick go dig in the kids room, find all those cute punches you bought them or your scrap booking stuff...
 Second one down is a 1 inch square, I drew a pretty rose on with a colored fine point sharpie, it shrunk too. Can't draw? Place a pix under and trace it. I burned a hole in all these with a hot pin made red-hot from a BIC lighter(not for kids project) use a pair of pliers to hold pin or burn yourself. What fun this is.
