Heather B	Posted - Jan 06 2013 : 12:04:00 PM Looking for suggestions or ideas on what to make as small swaps or gifties when traveling and visiting. Something like the pin swapping done at the Olympics when you swap pins with people from other countries. I thought it would be a cute idea to have something on hand as a remembrance to give. Easy to make, not too expensive and travels well and stores in a small space. Ideas??

KathyC	Posted - Jan 06 2013 : 3:58:16 PM Clear #6 recycle plastic is the same thing as shrinky dink. I tried it with a small piece it had and it worked well. Here's a site that has some ideas and instructions for time and temp for baking.http://www.skiptomylou.org/2009/01/07/how-to-make-shrinky-dinks-with-recycled-6-plastic/ Have fun! Kathy
Heather B	Posted - Jan 06 2013 : 3:28:10 PM The charms would be cool. Perhaps put something from Colorado on it.....Columbine? Flag? hmmmmmm... will have to think about that one. CJ have you used the printable shrinky dink paper before?

ceejay48	Posted - Jan 06 2013 : 3:22:51 PM Shrinky dink charms. Small cloth bags with pretty ribbon to tie closed. Papercraft tags you can make.
