 | The Shrinky Dinks Book by Sherri Haab, Klutz Press Staff Our unofficial research indicates that Shrinky Dinks are fondly remembered by eight out of ten certified adults, and a complete mystery to the remaining two. So listen up, you two: Shrinky Dink is a sheet of magic plastic on which you draw and color designs. Cut out your designs with ordinary scissors, bake them for mere minutes on a cookie sheet in your oven and, through the miracle of quantum plasto-physics, your creations shrink to 44 of their original size. It's a trusted design axiom that the smaller things are, the cuter they are. Even the clumsiest drawing comes out looking just adorable after shrinking. We suspect that's the key to Shrinky Dink's lasting appeal -given the minimal level of effort and skill required, the results always surpass expectations. (Is this the perfect Klutz craft or what?) The Shrinky Dinks Book comes with six ready-to-use Shrinky Dink pages, bound right into the book, along with all necessary Klutz-clear instructions for making jewelry charms, picture frames, key fobs, gift tags, fridge magnets, lapel pins and so forth. The rest of the pages are a full-color treasure trove of spot art -- our very favorites out of several thousand images we gathered from all over the world. Animals, cars, cowboys, flowers, rocket ships, dragons... you name it, we've got a picture of it. We've even included some handy words and phrases in cool fonts, including a few versions of the ever popular I LOVE YOU. Readers put Shrinky Dink plastic over one of these great designs, trace it, and color it in any way they want (plain old lead pencils, colored pencils, acrylic paint and permanent markers all work great). Once their artwork shrinks, it's a masterpiece.Guaranteed. It should be clear by now that The Shrinky Dinks Book is yet another case of Klutz classic craft resuscitation. Just as The Boondoggle Book, brought lanyard back from the cobwebs of summer camp, and Pipe Cleaners Gone Crazy shed new light on the dustiest corner of the craft supply shelve AUTHOR: Sherri Haab, Klutz Press Staff PUBLISHER: Klutz FORMAT: Other CATEGORY: General
