Shrink plastic

So I tried my hand at a new fun craft, shrink plastic. It was relly fun to work with and even though I'm not 100% happy with the results I'm still satisfied as it was my first time trying this.
I used posca markers and just drew pictures from magazines and books.
One set with a model and makeup theme and another set with a retro sewing theme.
It was really easy to make and not many accessories or tools are needed.
Setting the right temperature and timing in the oven was a bit tricky and also to make them totally flat and nice looking.
I must have looked pretty crazy "cooking" small plastic trinkets in the oven equipped with a spatula and a plate to pick them out to cool off.
I'm thinking of using the sets as small charms on bracelets.
If the pictures look a little shoddy it's because of my old cellphone cam, i really need to buy a new one soon, but that's another story :)

retro sewing

I'm starting up my old blog again. I'll just keep it simple and relaxed, writing about ongoing projects and such.

I know I started out making a cat softie from a 70's kit almost two years ago, then somehow it ended up in my box of UFO's. Now that I got some new shelves and rearranged my crafting stash I picked it up again. This time I finished it! :)
Here a pic of how it ended up. It's just the tail that needed to get sewn on in the picture. Now the cat is sitting on the top of my bookshelf giving a nice splash of color to the room.

The (almost) finished project!
