Details:
This is the first ever Shrinky Dink workshop experience in Amsterdam!
Shrinky dinks is an art form that uses sheets of special plastic that shrink and contract when they are heated.
The sheets can be drawn on and coloured with marker pens and cut with scissors.
When they are heated they shrink into cute little charms that can be made into key chains, earings, lapel pin badges and fridge magnet.

These were really popularity in the 1980s but they are currently making a come back!
Draw you favourite cartoon character or picture on the plastic and then shrink it.
Cover it in UV resin to dry and then attach them to earring badges pins and keychains!

Make beautiful and unique gifts for your loved ones.


Date:
The next workshop will be on Sunday 24th November at 1pm


Workshop Description:
The workshop is 2-3 hours
All equipment, materials and instructions is included.

It is a good idea to have an idea about what character or picture you would like to draw and make into a shrinky dink.

Maybe Hello Kitty? Cinnamoroll? Buzz Lightyear? Pikachu? Lilo & Stitch?
Once you have decided what you want to draw, print it out or save a picture to your smartphone or tablet and bring it to the workshop.

If you can’t decide, we have a selection of books that teach you how to draw cute / kawaii animals that you can use for inspiration.
We also have a selection of pre-printed templates of popular cartoon characters you can use to trace.

The workshop will start with an introduction and will cover the following topic.
1. How to draw, trace and colour on the shrink dink sheets.
2. How to trace using you phone or tablet.
3. How to cut and shape shrink dinks.
4. How to heat them and keep them flat.
5. Applying UV resin and how to cure them.
6. Attaching charm to earing hoops, keychains, badge pin and magnets.
7. Troubleshooting common problems. Curling, smudges & rough edges.

The workshop is a fun and relaxing afternoon of hands on art and craft.
We will provide some soft drinks and snacks and also play j-pop and k-pop music.
It wil be a fun time of crafting, laughing and chatting with people in a nice environment with an excellent soundtrack.

An apron and gloves are provided but it is recommended to wear old or dark coloured clothes.
