Friends Over


It's the fourth day of the school holidays. My 5 year old son and my 10 year old daughter each have a friend over and it's beginning to sound like a war zone around here. Cushions are flying and.. tell me, why do kids need to scream so much to have a good time?
My son's friend asked if he can make Shrinki's and everyone is keen, so out came the trusty Shrinkibits shrink plastic supplies. The kids choose their cutout shrink plastic shapes and use the tracings along with their own ideas to create their original pieces ready to shrink.

The noise settles and is replaced with giggles and chatter.
Heaven.. time to grab a cuppa!
A batch ready to bake...

In the oven shrinking and starting to flatten...
Done and ready to attach to their schoolbags.
