Shrinky Dinking ~ Experimental jewelry workshops
I've been looking at these out of the corner of my eye, thinking how sweet and delicate they are. Well, it's time we make some magic. We have all the materials necessary, plus ! We also have Carolyn to guide us through it all. You'll make some wonderful jewelry, charms, hair clips, ornaments, flowers, leaves, insects or whatever meets your fancy. Together, we'll make sense of this enchanting and delicate experience. You'll be thrilled with your results. I'm game if you are, so let's meet and have at it !
