Shrink It


Turn sheets of plastic into adorable trinkets with Berry Books’ newest craft book: Shrink It!

Shrink It shows readers how to shrink plastic to transform it into key chains, pendants, magnets, and more. Using special plastic sheets that come with the book, crafters can cut out cool designs, color them in, and bake them in a toaster oven for a few minutes to turn them into hard, shrunken plates that can be used in a number of fun ways—all while keeping the drawings and colors intact!

In Shrink It, crafters have over 30 projects to try and 10 plastic sheets to work with: five with ready-made designs and five blank ones so you can come up with your own art. With the aid of materials commonly found at home—scissors; a pot holder; a spatula; a book; paper; and your choice of markers, colored pencils, or acrylic paint—easy-to-follow instructions guide readers from drawing the design on shrink plastic to whipping up the cool finished product.

If you run out of plastic sheets, don’t fret; a booster pack is available so you don’t have to put your newfound hobby on hold. Grab the Shrink It Booster Pack for only P195; it’s got 10 more sheets for crafters to get creative with.
