I did!!! I loved them.
I'd buy the blank sheets (don't know if they sell these anymore), and draw my own. I also never used the pens that came with the set, but used Sharpie markers instead for vivid color. My favorite thing to do was trace the character images off cereal boxes and make keychains. These days they even have a special oven. :O http://www.goemerchant-co...MKR1_1.JPG | |

I burned crickets and grasshoppers on a stick over the bonfire. (Never burn a cricket on a straw... plastic melts and burns like hell!) You would like Shrinky Dinks... want some? I'll send you a package of them! | |

I read in a magazine lately about this new trend where friends (teen and twenty-somethings mostly) are writing notes/loveletters/test answers/whatever on shrinkydinks and making them into keychains to give to people. I thought it was the coolest idea. | |
