Skull Shrink-y-dinks






After the 4th and 5th graders finsihed their day of the dead skull artworks, they created shrink-y-dink necklaces. They could trace a skull picture or create their own design. I shrink them right before their eyes in my toaster oven at school! The kids love it and they turned out very cool.

  1. I was just pondering doing this with some left over shrinky dink I have. Did you use the clear or frosted type to get the white of the skull?
